King County, Georgia
The infection devastated the town in King County, reanimating many of the 1,300 residents into the shambling undead. The Harrison Memorial Hospital was where a number of patients and staff were executed by military personnel while bodies of the dead were stored in the back lot of the hospital, though a few patients and staff, including Dr. Gale Macones, remained behind in hiding. Many of the homes and stores in town were abandoned as zombies filled the streets. The military set up an evacuation center in a park where they evacuated civilians in helicopters and trucks to Atlanta, but it became overrun as the growing number of the undead overwhelmed the town. This forced surviving residents, such as Shane Walsh, Lori Grimes and her son Carl, to evacuate on their own to find safety. When Rick woke up from his coma a few weeks later, King County was completely abandoned and overrun, though he encountered two other survivors, Morgan Jones and his son Duane, before making his way to Atlanta.

Atlanta, Georgia
The city of Atlanta, with a population of 420,000 people, fell to the undead as thousands of citizens were infected, killed, and turned into zombies. Many survivors made their way to the refugee centers in Atlanta, but were forced to flee when the outbreak spiraled out of control. The military firebombed the city in an attempt to stop the outbreak from spreading any further, but their efforts failed as many zombies were not impacted by the firebombing and continued to roam the ruined streets. While a large number of zombies remain the city, many have shuffled out of the greater metropolitan area in search of other food sources. With the city abandoned, it has become a prime scavenging spot for the few groups of survivors who have set up safe zones in and around the city, including the Atlanta survivor camp and the Vatos nursing home.

Atlanta Survivor Camp
A group of thirty-three (33) people, both survivors who escaped Atlanta and refugees who were on their way to the city seeking shelter, established a camp on the city's outskirts, in a nearby quarry. The camp consisted of tents and temporary shelters as well as the survivors' vehicles, including a functioning RV. The survivors all shared responsibility in chores and defending the camp, while a small group (Andrea, Morales, Glenn, Merle, T-Dog, Jacqui) was formed to conduct supply runs into the city. One night, a horde of zombies attacked camp, killing fifteen (15) people, including Ed and Amy, while Jim died a day later after being bitten during the attack. Afterwards, the survivors abandoned camp and set out for the Center of Disease Control headquarters in the city, while the Morales family decided to depart from the group and head to Birmingham, Alabama.


 * Alive

Atlanta Nursing Home
A nursing home in the city of Atlanta became a safe haven after the nursing home's staff abandoned the elderly when the outbreak began, leaving the Vatos gang to take care and defend the nursing home residents. In total, there were at least twenty (20) gang members and sixteen (16) elderly residents living at the home. Disaster struck when the nursing home was attacked by armed bandits, in which the poorly armed Vatos members were easily defeated and the elderly residents were mercilessly executed as the nursing home was raided for supplies. The complex was left abandoned and littered with bodies of thugs and senior citizens alike.


 * Alive
 * Amidst the chaos at the nursing home, a few people were able to escape alive only to be overrun by dozens of zombies in the streets. Shumpert and an elderly woman were the only survivors though they were separated, with Shumpert being found and taken in by Woodbury leader Philip Blake while the woman was off on her own until she found safety.

Center for Disease Control
The headquarters for the Center of Disease Control (CDC) in Atlanta was locked down after much of its staff fled when the apocalypse started. Doctors Candace and Edwin Jenner stayed behind to study the virus, though Candace succumbed to the virus after being infected, leaving Edwin as the sole survivor. He eventually let in the the camp survivors after initially denying them entry. Shortly after entry, the CDC's generators ran out of fuel, causing the facility to self-destruct. While the group fled, Edwin and Jacqui chose to stay behind, opting an easy way out as opposed to death by zombies.

Greene Farm
After the destruction of the CDC and exodus out of Atlanta, the survivors were unable to progress any further to Fort Benning due to the major traffic jam on the highway. When a zombie horde passed through, Sophia went missing as she fled through the woods to escape two walkers that caught sight of her. During the search for Sophia, Carl was accidentally shot by farmhard Otis. When news of Carl's injury spread to the other group members, they all headed to the Greene Farm, following Maggie Greene's instructions. Carl is healed and the group is invited by the Greene family to stay on the farm, despite initial tense relations. After various dramatic situations involving Sophia's fate, the zombified family members & neighbors kept in the barn, what to do with Randall, and Rick & Shane's growing animosity, the farm is overrun by zombies and the survivors are forced to flee once more. While most of the survivors re-group on the highway, Andrea is believed to be one of those killed on the farm, though she actually escaped and was rescued by Michonne in the woods.


 * Alive

The Living
In the rural town near the Greene Farm, a group of hostile survivors known as "The Living" were encountered by Rick, Glenn, and Herhsel while they were at a bar. Dave and Tony, the two men who were fishing for information out of Rick's group, were quickly shot and killed by Rick before they could harm the group, and the men's reinforcements were around to fire back at Rick's group. One was killed, another was captured while a third escaped. Randall, the captive, was brought to the farm where his fate was discussed, though Shane Walsh secretly murdered him in the woods after releasing him.

West Georgia Correctional Facility
This prison facility fell to the undead after the outbreak started, in which many of the prisoners and guards turned into zombies, while others were executed by the guards, such as in Cell Block B. Other non-prisoner zombies made their way into the prison after a wall in the administrative building collapsed due to a fire. A small group of prisoners survived by living in the cafeteria and were met by the Atlanta survivors when they arrived at the prison seeking refuge. From there, a prison community was established, though they suffered casualties, from Andrew's zombie-lured attack to the Governor's multiple assaults. Over the course of the first few weeks, Michonne and Merle Dixon were admitted entry to the community, though Tyreese's group was kicked out after Donna died and Rick was still hallucinating from Lori's death. The prison prevailed from the second assault by Woodbury, and was kind enough to open its doors for the remaining Woodbury survivors (elderly, children, mothers) after the majority of the townspeople was slaughtered by the Governor.


 * Alive

Woodbury, Georgia
The town of Woodbury, with a population of 3,300 residents, fell to the undead after the apocalypse began. However, a section of town was taken back by the living. The safe zone was cleaned up, fortified with walls and school buses, and had power restored, to allow for electricity and hot water. The secured buildings were converted into apartments, a school, a medical clinic, and a food pantry, while Philip Blake (aka the Governor) ruled Woodbury from the town hall. Life was peaceful, children played in the streets, guards patrolled the walls, and the residents worked together to grow food and to ensure civilization would continue. Refugees were often admitted entry to join the community (Andrea, Michonne, Tyreese, Sasha, Allen and Ben) while residents were free to move on whenever they chose, with the total number of survivors who have lived in Woodbury at one point or another reaching one-hundred seventy-two (172).

However, war eventually broke out between the prison and Woodbury, despite Andrea's efforts to negotiate peace. When Rick's group invaded town to rescue Glenn and Maggie who were kidnapped by Merle, several guards were killed and the townspeople were terrified, with many leaving immediately after the attack. From there on, the gates were closed to prevent any more residents from leaving and the people of Woodbury were armed and given basic firearms training. After the Governor's plan to capture Michonne failed, he rallied nearly seventy (70) people, including members of the Woodbury Army and untrained civilians, to attack the prison, which ended in disaster as the residents were easily frightened. Those who escaped the prison alive fled in terror, only to be gunned down by the Governor when they refused to return to the prison. The approximately twenty-three (23) children, mothers, and elderly who remained behind at Woodbury were welcomed to join the prison community after learning what the Governor had done. When the Governor returned to Woodbury and found it abandoned, he burned everything down before leaving for good.

Georgia National Guardsmen
A group of eleven (11) National Guardsmen managed to escape their military base after it became overrun. They were on the road before stopping at a clearing and set up a makeshift camp. While on a scouting mission, two (2) of the soldiers died when their helicopter crashed while a third, the pilot, survived and was taken to Woodbury for medical attention. However, he was later murdered after revealing the location of his fellow soldiers. The remaining eight (8) guardsmen were ambushed and killed by the Governor and his men, in order to steal weapons and supplies while ensuring no form of authority would be able to remove Woodbury from the Governor's rule.


 * Dead

Rural Georgia
Other survivors were encountered throughout the rural Georgia area, near the town of Woodbury and the West Georgia Correctional Facility, as well as in King County. Most of these survivors were living by themselves, such as Morgan Jones, the hermit, and the hitchhiker, or in small groups on the move as opposed to living in established camp, such as the Mexican family. Despite surviving for so long, many people met gruesome fates, including Michonne's family when zombies overran they refugee camp they were living at.

West Georgia Correctional Facility
After the Governor's failed assault on the prison and the Woodbury residents slaughtered, the prison group opened their gates to the remaining townspeople and allowed them to join the community. In addition to this, survivors who were found in the 'wilderness' or those who came across the prison seeking refuge were all welcomed, including families with children, college students, and a doctor. Over the course of 6-7 months, the prison's defenses were fixed, vegetable gardens were grown in the yard, electricity was restored, and more parts of the prison cleared, to turn the facility into a more inhabitable and comfortable community. Also, the population rose from a mere ten (10) to seventy (70) survivors.

Things turned for the worse when a deadly flu reached the prison, causing an internal zombie attack in one of the cell blocks, that resulted in many of the residents coming down with the disease. Almost immediately after the flu situation was under control, the Governor and his new crew of followers attacked the prison with a tank, destroying the fences and blasting apart the building. Hershel Greene was decapitated and several residents were killed in the attack, forcing the remaining survivors to evacuate. The chaos separated everyone into different groups, with the majority fleeing on the Woodbury bus. The prison remains abandoned, destroyed, and overrun with dozens of zombies.

The Governor's Group
After the fall of Woodbury, the Governor fled the area with his two remaining henchmen, Martinez and Shumpert. In shock and disgust over the Governor's massacre of the Woodbury townspeople, the henchmen abandon him the next morning, leaving him all alone. The Governor eventually meets the Chambler family in an abandoned town and lives with them after gaining their trust. While on the run from zombies, they are found by Martinez and brought in to his camp of roughly thirty-five (35) survivors. After Martinez and Pete are murdered by the Governor, he and Mitch take up leadership roles and persuade the rest of their fellow survivors to attack the prison in order to take it as their new home.


 * Alive
 * As the prison assault was ongoing, several others, including children, the elderly, and a few women, stayed behind at the makeshift river camp, safely out of harm's way. Following the prison assault and learning the fate of their fellow survivors, it is likely the campers packed up and moved on. Tara survived the attack and escaped with Glenn after being found.

Prison Refugees
While the prison safe-haven was being attacked by the Governor and his militia, at least thirty (30) residents of the community were able to escape, though they were separated into several groups. With the death of several refugees as they attempt to find safety in the wilderness, some of the prison groups encounter other people, including Tara Chambler, Sergeant Abraham Ford, Dr. Eugene Porter, Rosita Espinosa, in which they decide to join forces together in order to survive. All the groups decide to make their way to Terminus, a sanctuary, after seeing signs posted along the train tracks. Most of the survivors finally reach Terminus, though they were captured by the residents and locked in a train car, indicating that Terminus was a trap. Carol, Tyreese, and Judith have yet to arrive at Terminus by the time Rick and his group were captured while Beth remains kidnapped.


 * Alive

The Claimers
A group of bandits led by Joe were encountered by Rick at a house in an abandoned neighborhood. Lou is strangled to death by Rick as he escapes the house undetected. While the group is back on the road, they find Daryl and take him in, continuing their journey in tracking Lou's killer. Shortly after Len is killed by the group for "breaking the rules", Rick, Michonne, and Carl are found and captured. Daryl tries to negotiate their safety, but is beaten by Harley and Billy as Dan seizes Carl. Rick suddenly tears out Joe's throat as Michonne is able to shoot Tony and Harley while Daryl kills Billy. Dan is then repeatedly stabbed by Rick, marking the final death of the claimers gang.


 * Dead

Terminus
Terminus is a town established at train yard outside of Macon, Georgia. The roughly thirty-seven (37) inhabitants of Terminus have posted signs at many crossings along the tracks and programmed a looped message over the radio notifying that Terminus is a sanctuary for all. Glenn, Maggie, Sasha, Bob, Tara, Abraham, Rosita, and Eugene, followed by Rick, Carl, Michonne, and Daryl, all arrive at Terminus seeking refuge only to be captured and locked in a train car after rejecting the notion of cannibalism. The people of Terminus have created a system to herd survivors into one of four containers, labeled A-D, in order to capture and imprison them, where they ultimately strip them of their possessions and kill them for food.


 * Alive

Rural Georgia
Several survivors are scattered throughout the rural Georgia area, living in campsites or abandoned buildings by themselves or with other people. During the early stages of the apocalypse, as the outbreak heavily affected the area, many people were killed as towns and families were decimated. As the outbreak raged, a number of people chose suicide, such as Joe Sr. and Big Tony's family, though others were able to survive longer only to be eventually killed by zombies, including Ana and an unnamed survivor travelling on his own. A small group of survivors living in a camp in the woods were ambushed and murdered by a hostile group.


 * Dead

Rick's Group
Rick and his fellow survivors are rescued from Terminus by Carol and reunited with Tyreese and Judith. While they find shelter at the church of a priest they save in the woods, Bob is kidnapped by Gareth and has his leg cut off and eaten by the surviving Terminants. After the remaining Terminants are killed, Abraham leads a group of survivors to Washington DC while others remain behind, waiting for the return of Daryl and Carol. Daryl eventually returns to the church with Noah, who alerts the survivors that Carol and Beth are being held at a hospital in Atlanta. Rick's group exchange two captured officers for Beth and Carol, but Beth was shot in the head by Dawn.


 * Alive

Terminus
At one point, the town of Terminus was a true sanctuary that was home to several dozen survivors. However, a group of armed bandits invaded Terminus where they tortured, raped, and killed many of the residents for weeks, leaving as many as 50 people dead, including children. After a few weeks, Gareth and the captured Terminants were able to fight back and retake their home. From there on, the townspeople agreed to always put themselves first and adapt to cannibalism in order to survive. The new arrivals who objected to cannibalism were quickly captured, stripped of their possessions, and turned into food to feed those who agreed to abide by Terminus' ways. Before Rick and his group could be executed, Terminus is attacked by Carol, who ignited an explosion that allowed a large horde of zombies to infiltrate the town, killing many of the inhabitants. After gunning down numerous Terminants and rescuing the trapped survivors from the boxcar, Rick and his group escape Terminus, which is left overrun and ablaze. Gareth and a few other survivors manage to escape Terminus and plan to hunt Rick and his group for revenge; however, they are brutally killed after being cornered in Father Stokes' church.

'Terminus is breached by Carol after she causes an explosion by shooting a gas tank, allowing the herd of zombies to overrun the fortified compound. During the chaos, many of the Terminus inhabitants are killed by the zombies, while numerous others are gunned down by Rick and Carol. Additionally, several captives, including Sam, were already executed by the butchers before they could be rescued. Gareth and the surviving Terminants are executed and killed themselves after being captured by Rick's group.'

Grady Memorial Hospital
Officers of the Atlanta Police Department were evacuating the staff and patients of Grady Memorial Hospital to Butler Park when the city was firebombed. After the streets were napalmed, the remaining survivors at the hospital barricaded themselves inside. After running low on food and supplies, they went on runs and eventually started rescuing people and admitting them to the safe haven, with newcomers performing chores and jobs in return for refuge. The community leader is Lieutenant Dawn Lerner, who oversees her 11 (eleven) officers and nuermous patients. During a daring escape attempt, Noah makes it out of the hospital complex while Beth is recaptured. While Officers O'Donnell and Alvarado look for Noah, they come across Carol and bring her to the hospital. During the search for Noah, several officers are captured by Rick's group, though Sergeant Lamson managed to escape but is gunned down. The officers are exchanged for Beth and Carol, though Beth is killed after Dawn's gun goes off. Rick lets Dr. Edwards, Percy, and the other patients know that they can leave with Rick's group, but they decided to stay with the remaining officers.

Other survivors have been surviving out in the post-apocalyptic ruins of Georgia and other parts of the United States.

Alexandria Safe-Zone
An area within the city of Alexandria, Virginia, which had a population of 140,000 people before the outbreak started, has been cleared and transformed into a community, dubbed the Alexandria Safe-Zone.
