I Built a Wall and a Trench Around My House and Survived 30 Months After the Zombie Outbreak

Story Title - I Built a Wall and a Trench Around My House and Turned It Into a Settlement After the Zombie Outbreak!

By the time the world hit its thirtieth month after the outbreak, survival stopped being about hiding and started being about structure. The wall and trench around my house were no longer emergency measures—they were the foundation of something larger. People found us because nowhere else was holding. A fortified hospital wing was collapsing under extortion. A motorhome group ran out of safe roads. We didn’t offer rescue or promises. We offered rules, work, and a place where effort still meant something.

This story follows how a defended home became a functioning settlement under constant pressure. More people meant more food to grow, more water to protect, more waste to manage, and more eyes watching from the outside. Infected moved in drifting groups, raiders adapted, and every system we built revealed new weak points. Nothing here was easy or permanent. This is a real-time account of how order was enforced, how alliances were tested, and how survival turned into a daily operation with no margin for error.
