No food at Dicks Sporting Goods. Walmart has guns and food...and a garage to work on cars and trucks.

Better than a Wal-Mart... a Wal-Mart distribution facility. Much larger with enough supplies for many Wal-Marts. No glass store front to re-enforce. A colossal warehouse with over a hundred semi bays that could have trailers backed up them for additional storage or housing.

You guys are all doing this wrong. You're supposed to agree with me and not argue your own point. Geeeezzzz.......

Literally a fucking castle :D with a courtyard in the middle for growing veg and stuff and a moat.

Are there a lot of castles around where you live?

Well i live in england, so quite a lot more castles over here than there are where TWD is set :p

Then, regionally, that would be a good choice. However, fortunately, I live in a country that isn't bogged down with a 1000 year old infrastructure to work around.

Generally a prison would be the best place, but they have already tried that one :/

Problem with prison is, once you're in, it's really hard to get out.

A village built in the trees, like a bunch of tree houses built together. Think the tree village in Robin Hood: Prince of Theives.

This is one of the better ideas I've heard. You could literally live there for years without having to go out and scavenge. Remove any signage on the roads that might point a group like the Saviors in your direction, and you're golden!

And what if these facilities were already occupied by employees who are now walkers?

Not so safe anymore and quite problematic with dead people lurking around in hidden areas.

A colonized Mars. The virus would be safely contained on Earth and unable to survive the Martian atmosphere. I do realize that I'm thinking way outside the box.

The great Plains or the desert or even the artic. Sparcly populated and you can see for miles around to see if there any walkers coming.

If Mars had been colonized, their only chance of avoiding the same problem would be to shoot down any craft from Earth that ignored their warnings not to attempt a landing. If even one of them got to the ground and the hatch was opened, whatever agent re-animates the dead would be unleashed on a new world.

More likely you'd have to deal with Wal-Mart employees who weren't dead, and got the idea to move their families into their workplace before it occurred to you. Hopefully you get there before the mindset of turning other people away to stretch supplies for yourself really sets in. Early on, they'd probably open up for you if you knocked. Later you'd get the business end of a rifle and an invitation to hit the road.

You missed the part about me saying the virus is unable to survive the Martian atmosphere.
