As usual hide in the grass.
-
Focus on using your crossbow and get headshots so you can get the arrows back.

Some Rattlers will have dogs. Kill the owner and then take out the dog. Keep a throwable on you so you can distract the dogs if they get suspicious.
Cut through the train ticket station ahead for supplies. Continue up the next street with more Rattlers.
Head to the blue train car and crawl underneath it. Interact with the fence to move it and push forward.
There are a lot of Rattlers ahead and many have helmets and/or bulletproof vests. Exploding arrows work wonders here.
The house on the side has some loot but to keep on the main path go to the building with lights on. You’ll reach a board and can climb over it to get back to the outside.Continue ahead to the area with the clicker pool. Take down enemies until you can make it inside the mansion on the left. When you do, continue up the stairs but keep in mind more Rattlers will come down.
When you’ve finished looting the mansion continue and you’ll find yourself on the balcony. Leap over the stone barricade to keep moving ahead. You’ll be near some party tables and this building will have some Rattlers in it. Consider staying outside and picking them off as they appear rather than going into the house immediately.
