Crime and cost of living in your area.

I live on 20 acres in east central Indiana. 3 bed room house, huge pole building for my cars and machinery. Very affordable for a middle class couple (im 44 years old). The only zombies i ever see are at my local Walmart - and they dont sound as bad as your zombies.
I’ll take the weirdos at Walmart, this is on a different level down here. We have some nice rural areas near me, but they are just as expensive and then I would have a longer commute. I’ve never been to Indiana, I will check it out any towns specifically to look in to?
