- Fortress: Look for pre-built defenses or walled towns. Existing fortifications save time and resources
- River Defense: Can be a great natural barrier against the infected. Look for locations that are surrounded by water on at least two sides
- Buildings as Defense: Settle in a dense urban area. Fortify them with walls and gates, and use them as lookout towers
- Resource Rich: Keep an eye out for locations with plentiful trees for wood (crucial for building) and lootable buildings for essential supplies
