I live in a racially mixed suburban neighborhood on Long Island NY. I am well prepped with food, water and defense. However no generator. I'm skeptical about getting a whole house gas powered one ($$$) or smaller gas or diesel to power fridge and freezer only because the noise would make us a target. Any ideas?

I only want to keep my deep freezer going. At this point in my life, I'm not going anywhere.
that's understandable didn't mean to preach/just amazed by differences in our lives. how we end up where we do.
a lot of people in the midwest wouldn't need freezers because they can hunt and barter.
you can run a freezer on an inverter. there's also companies like Jackery that make complete systems, very popular and lots of good reviews.
I don't know your setup or space, but you might start learning about dehydrating and canning. You do need to follow steps to be safe, but you can preserve and dry veg, fruits and meats. Long term storage that doesn't need electricity. Just a thought.
