A lot of communities that fit this are relatively remote. So, in times of inclement weather those communities might not get rescue services for a while. So, it’s important to become a part of the community just for those emergency situations. If you feel like you can be self-sufficient and live completely disconnected, then being a part of the community might be optional?

So it's nearly impossible to become integrated, but I should run for sheriff/mayor/lead cheesemaker, or else(!!!) a blizzard will come and the townies will leave me to die in my snow palace? Thanks for the advice.

Could we get a semi-vague geotag for this? EX: NE WI or SE OH
Also, are we talking egging houses, rolling trees, or stalking / verbal hostility?
