Portland has been ranked fourth in a list of cities in the United States that are most likely to survive a zombie apocalypse. The ranking, compiled by Lawn Love, considered 26 "key indicators," including factors such as access to nearby military bases, the availability of hardware stores, and the prevalence of homes with basements. Portland's high placement indicates that it possesses the necessary resources and infrastructure to withstand a fictional zombie uprising. The top three cities in the ranking are Honolulu, Salt Lake City, and Orlando, with Portland securing the fourth spot out of 200 cities analyzed.

The criteria used to determine the rankings suggest that cities with proximity to military bases have an advantage in terms of defense and security against potential zombie threats. Additionally, the availability of hardware stores is likely associated with access to tools and materials needed for fortification and defense measures. The presence of homes with basements could offer a strategic advantage for shelter and protection during an apocalyptic scenario.

Conversely, the ranking identifies Las Vegas and its surrounding areas as having the lowest chances of survival in a zombie apocalypse, with five locations in the region occupying the lowest positions. The specific reasons behind the lower rankings for these locations are not explicitly detailed, but it implies a lack of factors deemed essential for survival based on the indicators considered in the analysis.

While the ranking is lighthearted and based on fictional scenarios, it incorporates real-world elements such as the availability of resources and infrastructure. It reflects a creative and amusing way of evaluating cities based on their potential resilience in a hypothetical, and highly improbable, zombie apocalypse.
