That's the beauty of Alaska. Not many people there.

I've never been to Alaska, but I'm wondering if it'd be too hard to survive there to be worth it. Once the electricity and running water were no longer working.

well, that's the other part of it. can zombies survive in extremely cold climates?
ever notice how anything to do with zombie's is in a generally warmer area?

Actually I've been hoping for a Zombie movie to come out that occurs during a blizzard or in Alaska or some such. Yeah, I don't imagine they would be able to move once they freeze due to no body heat, but I am no eskimo. I think for me anyway, I'd be less likely to survive a frigid climate than to fight off zombies in some remote warmer area.

The book World War Z explains that after the 10 year zombie pandemic war, most of the world is safe, but they still go into the frozen wastelands of the north every spring to shoot the zombies as they thaw out and hunger for brains again.
The book is really amazing, and covers every aspect of the zombie invasion, including how all the world's governments and the media react differently, and all the political madness that goes down between North and South Korea, India and Pakistan, and Israel, and South Africa. It's not only a great book about zombies, but great political and social satire. And Brad Pitt bought the rights to make a movie out of it, so you should hopefully get to see some frozen zombies in the next couple years.
Having read both The Zombie Survival Handbook and World War Z, I think I'll be ready.
I can get onto my roof really easily and I doubt zombies could follow me. I'd just need to get to the supermarket 2 blocks from here to stock up on food, and then get on my roof. I'm also in Oakland, so the zombies would have to get past all the gangs before they get to my house. There's been shootings on my street, so I know my neighbors are armed and dangerous. I'd use an extension cord to plug my DS into the wall inside so I could play DS on the roof while I eat and wait it out.
If the internet wasn't dead, I'd take my wife's laptop on the roof and try to communicate with all you guys and everybody else I know and try to set up some sort of survival network where we could share everything we were learning about how these particular zombies operate, how fast they can run, if they can climb or swim, if fire scares them, how they react to noise, how big their swarms get, etc. I'd also look for any armed neighbors and see if we could meet up and share weapons and supplies, and if the shit got too crazy, I'm not too far from the bay, so we'd go try to steal a boat and a stereo system. We'd anchor our boat just a little off shore and start blasting jams so the zombies would hear us and come to the edge, and we'd shoot them all. This would take out a lot of zombies and give us a good idea how many zombies are within music-hearing distance of the water. I'm also right next to a Home Depot, so if I could safely get there, I could get tons of axes. They don't need bullets so I could chop FOREVER.
And I promised my wife I'd never let her get infected, so if a zombie bit her, I'd have to shoot her first. :)
