15 acres.
Oaks, pines, maples, sweet gum, maypop (wild passion fruit), fern, american plum, assorted wildflowers.
Deer, fox, coyote, turkey, rabbit, squirrel, dove, quail, alligator, panther...
Hurricane Irma is suppose to track right over me, this maybe my last post.
Dirt road that's graded regularly by the county. Walmart is 25 minutes away but it still feels like the middle of nowhere once you get off the road.
Poor county so nobody gives a fuck. County can't even afford renewal notices for vehicle registration so you just have to remember to go and pay for it.
Taxes are about $10 an acre yearly for undeveloped land.
Very few con's:
Small dating pool.
Few entertainment options.
Pros make it worthwhile:
Rifle range where I can blowup tannerite© in my backyard.
Leave vehicles unlocked because nobody sets foot here unless they're invited.
I know every vehicle that drives down the road.
No one knocks on my door.
Never hear neighbors.
If I hear gunshots in the distance, its either a neighbor plinking or hunting- not Tyrone robbing the corner gas station.
I'll never go back to a major city.

some quick hurricane advice, esp. if you're in the path of the hurricane. BOARD UP YOUR WIDOWS. Tape at minimum. Sit under the sturdiest doorframe or support beam in your house. Fill up your bathtub with water, unless you have a well (jealous). Uh, for everything else its probably too late, good luck man, report back!
What is the best way to search for plots of undeveloped land? In any location, from just outside the city to stark wilderness.

Sounds awesome. I'm trying to escape cities too, but there are some complications I gotta sort out first.
The cons you mentioned are a blessing in disguise.
i was looking into buying a bit of land in rural britain and its all so expensive, even small undeveloped bits, how do you buy a decent amount of land

You're on an island, unfortunately that would be expected. We're lucky in 'merica because we just have so much land. If you want to stay in-country I'd suggest Ireland/Scotland. But then I grew up on the pacific coast and now own my land on the Atlantic side. You might have to go further- try Russia or Poland or Kazakhstan....
