Once you understand the actual likelihood of risks and the forms they are likely to take, the next step is to evaluate potential responses.
And the first thing you need to understand is that in the vast majority of scenarios, sheltering in place is going to be the superior option, not "bugging out".
Only in the event of widespread #disaster, area #contamination, or #war #conflict will you actually need to leave the area.
#Evacuation routes will immediately clog faster than you think.

Of the three realistic risks, only 1 of them applies to non urban areas: widespread natural disaster. For most people, in most probable #evacuation scenarios, that is going to mean one of three things: 1. a hotel stay 2. a family or friend visit 3. an emergency shelter stay In none of these cases will it be necessary to pack a #survival knife in a #bugoutbag. In some cases, it might not be wise, or even permitted. And why are you talking about packing 5 identical bags, anyway?
