I feel MUCH safer here than I did in the Atlanta 'burbs. As you mentioned, there's not very many "outsiders" that would blend in. Heck, all we have here are rednecks and Mexicans.
I've lived in Atlanta and Jacksonville and both were considered "targets". Atlanta for the Airport, CNN and CDC and Jacksonville because of all the military ports.
We've got nothing of any interest up here and having your own water supply is always nice.
