Have you ever heard anyone utter some variation of one of these comments?

"I'm going to start prepping as soon as I can move."

"I can't prepare because I live in a tiny apartment."

"Well, once we are able to get moved to our farm in two years I'll start prepping hardcore."

"I'm saving the money for moving instead of using it for preps."

"There's no point in prepping here because if the SHTF I'll be dead."

Maybe you didn't overhear someone else saying it. Maybe you said it yourself. One of the most common excuses that people use for prepper procrastination is the unsuitability of where they currently live.

This is the kind of thinking that will get people killed.

Even if your situation is less than ideal, you have to get prepped.

While your current situation may be less than ideal, you have to remember that very few locations are actually perfect for prepping. Nearly anywhere you live will be subject to some type of extreme weather, be it crippling cold, blazing heat, drought, tornadoes, or hurricanes. Chemical spills can taint water supplies anywhere. Riots and civil unrest can occur outside of the big city.

The point is, to borrow an old saying, you just have to bloom where you're planted.
