I currently live in a very small community out side of a smallish town. We are at least a half hour from town and at least that far away from any LEO. The Sheriff and 4 deputies are on a sort of rotating shift sort of arrangement so at best you may get two to respond in that amount of time! Other emergency services are even further away, but that's in the Big City with lots of emergency responders and such! My neighbors and I have each others contact info and are usually helping each other out on various projects so we are Real Neighborly! But, that means we are our own first line of defense, and we are also each others first responders in case something happens to one of us! Right now, I have 2 1/2 feet of snow and the dirt roads are packed snow/ice which slows us down and makes a run to town about an hour by 4X4. By Snow Cat, I can cut that time to about the normal 1/2 hour but if I need to go to the big city, the Cat is no good!
