Always plan to "bug in," not bug out. You should prepare well where you already live.
However, have relocation alternatives. Wealthy people, not as wealthy as you might first think, do this all the time. They do it by having rental properties. Even if you have very little wealth to invest in the strategy, you can still have a relocation site. By using Airbnb and owning a cabin for example, you have created a relocation site.
Your home should be your castle, but having relocation sites near you and around the world is a wise move. Recently, a friend of mine mentioned a friend of his who had a rental property in Costa Rica. His friend does not live there and does not plan to live there, but they keep the property as a rental and emergency relocation site.
Depending on the amount of wealth you have, you may have a single rental cabin in the woods near your home or multiple homes around the globe.
You cannot afford even a little land in the mountains with a simple cabin? Pool your wealth together with trusted family and friends to make it happen. While you and your family are not using the location, rent it out to cover the mortgage, taxes, and maintenance.
Do not "bug out" without a known good destination. Have a relocation site prepared in advance instead.
