Definitely don't want to reveal your resources. It's not just Mormons and farmers that are targets, it's people who are better off and have a lot of stuff in general. Not to mention those who are known preppers or "hoarders".
The general idea is the desperadoes, a group that includes criminals, the have nots and unprepared, the military (if they need it), who ever, they will spread from the urban centers outward into the surrounding country side as raiders and take whatever the rural people have by force.
I think the locals will present the most problems before the raiders arrive, they will have the knowledge of what is available and probably hit the soft targets like ware houses or what have you first.
The movie "Panic in the Year Zero" starring Ray Milland and Frankie Avalon, that is pretty close to what to expect, from a black and white, early sixties cold war era point of view.
