Totally alone, unless you use the superb survivors or other mods.

There's plans for them down the line though after the animation update is pushed to stable: https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/136501320340209664/668141446628376585/Capture3.PNG

Since you don't own the game, personally I wouldn't buy it just for the mods of those NPCs alone nor with the idea of expecting the information above if you're expecting it soon. Mod runs quite poorly and doesn't really provide the smartest AI in most situations.

The closest thing you can really find to what the NPCs are going to be like is the Sims with relationships and personalities... And even then that's not doing it justice.
Here's a post from 2013 that goes into great detail about what the NPCs were capable of THEN. https://projectzomboid.com/blog/news/2013/01/tales-from-the-metaverse/
The store page wasn't kidding when it states
Originally posted by Store Page:
In-depth and varied NPC encounters driven in a persistent world, powered by a metagame system that turns each play-through into your very own zombie survival movie with emergent narrative gameplay.
Just be aware though that NPCs aren't coming anytime soon. After animations and the MP rework is finally done, next is animals. https://pzwiki.net/wiki/Upcoming_versions
THEN there will be several builds dedicated to fully implementing NPCs, up to v1.0.
So if that's what mainly interests you, I'd give the game a few more years.
