The Scottish Highlands have been ranked as the safest place to survive a zombie apocalypse, a new study has found. Argyll and Bute came a close second with the Western Isles, Orkney and Stirling also featuring in the top ten of places to best survive zombies or alien invasions.

Obvious factors that were taken into account included population density and the availability of useful survival resources such as supermarkets and outdoor supply doors.But the number of lakes, garages, medical centres and other valuable amenities were also examined to discover areas with the best survival supplies.

The study, conducted by JeffBet, gave a score of 74.04 out of a possible 130 points to the picturesque Highlands.A standout strength was the remarkably low population density which was seen as a “crucial factor” in navigating post-apocalyptic challenges.

The wilderness areas were identified as being the perfect location for foraging and setting up remote shelters away from others.Securing second place with a respectable score of 71.27 points is Argyll and Bute.
