Mystery Babylon vs Tyre

I was reading Ezekiel 27 this morning and realized that the story sounded very familiar. Skipped over to Rev 17/18 and there the same story repeats itself with Mystery Babylon.

A seafront city, with a very profitable maritime industry being destroyed, never to be seen again...

Now here is what makes me think, I was raised in the church to believe that everything secular is "Mystery Babylon" and must be stayed far away from. Now in the Torah community many want to homestead specifically as they want to come out of "Mystery Babylon".

I am all for homesteading and lived on farms for 6 years which was the quiet in our lives that we needed to find Father and Torah again. I would give my front teeth to have a piece of land for myself so am totally for it.

What I am wonderin is should we react through fear of "living in Mystery Babylon" specifically when desciding where to live?

Both Tyre and Mystery Babylon are specific cities. Believers are called to come out of "her" just before the city is destroyed. So believers are warned ahead of time.

What this also means is that neither Rome, Washington DC, Moscow, etc. can be Mystery Babylon. NY City on the other hand... ? BUT Mystery Babylon is in the wilderness, so sorry not even NY City having the UN building in it can be Mystery Babylon.

Could the new Neom or better yet Oxagon become Mystery Babylon? Only time will tell.
