TL;DR doesn't work here. Survivors Study; and Eat Their Wheaties!
Zombies. The walking dead. Soulless, brain-eating, once-living creatures of ultimate habit have the worst desire for the center of the human nervous system. They eat brains and anything else that tastes good, and you just happen to present the best Sizzler buffet in the area.
Knowledge is power in this scenario. To quote Max Brooks [and somewhat painfully so]: "Organize Before They Rise."
Info --
It doesn't get more real than the survival of the Zombie Apocalypse. Everyone has their ideas of how to fend off the walking dead, and everyone has their hiding places. The usual hot spots of your youth have been taken away. They've been overrun by masses of carnivorous monsters who used to be your neighbor, your best friend, or your family. At this point, if you don't survive, you'll just be someone else's target practice.

Night of the Living Dead zombies: Origin is unknown. These are the classic, slow-moving, brain-dependent zombies that everyone knows. Dealing with them is mostly centered around the fact that you are faster and smarter than they are.
From a survival point of view, unless you're trying to secure an area, run from them whenever you see them. Fighting them just makes noise and attracts more of them. As long as you keep moving, they're unlikely to be able to catch you.
Return of the Living Dead zombies: Origin is the chemical Trioxin. You're probably screwed on this one, too. These zombies possess intelligence, although they don't appear to be able to fully use it due to their overpowering hunger. They move fast, possess human strength, and can only be killed by completely destroying their bodies.
You're pretty much hosed. There's no easy way to kill these zombies, and you can't outrun them.
28 Days Later zombies: Origin is the Rage virus. These zombies move quickly, and are vicious, but lack intelligence, and are killed in any way that a normal human would be.
You're in luck! Find some full-body coverage, hunker down somewhere, and kill whatever stragglers show up. Wait it out; they'll eventually all starve to death.
Dawn of the Dead remake zombies: Origin is unknown. These zombies move quickly, but are otherwise just like Night of the Living Dead zombies.
You can't outrun these guys. Your best bet is to find some place secure that has food, water, and other supplies you will need, and kill as many as you can every day. With any luck they'll eventually stop showing up. Don't count on it, though.

It is very important that you let your strategy determine your tactics, not vise versa. Simply put: just because you can do something, doesnt mean you should. In a zombie apocalypse this is paramount.
