I'm pretty sure there is something left on your map, it is just very far away. Look for tiny buildings, and turn them into storage. That way, your workers have to walk the long way only two times per day.

The infected will trash those buildings almost every night, but if they are small enough, you can repair them for the cost of one unit of wood.

Depending on the distance, you might have to recall the workers manually earlier than usual.

For a beginner, it is easier to start the game in an area with higher density. Take a look at 11th Avenue 1700 (Seattle), and/or Mt Morris Park West 24 (Cliffside Park, New York). Each location has a park nearby (wood supply), metal and bricks are also no problem, and there are plenty of POI. And the layout of these cities makes it easier to set up a proper defense.

(I took a look at our house in IFZ. This village isn't a suitable place to start the rebuilding of the civilisation after an apocalypse for sure. )

Personally, I would just start over on a different map with more buildings and hope a future update contains more options for construction resources.

so no matter what i will in the end loose

I am playing one low population zone too. It much much much more difficult to play with very few resources. So going all wood is required. Using metal only if required.

Like I said in a previous comment, I would restart on a different map with more buildings.

use of metal is inevidable you will at the end become barbarian with a machete.

if this is a survival game. you got to survive endless. means you need resources endless.

i would for example recycle guns, used ammo shels, fuel bottles. etc.

Some kind of recycling is already work in progress, but it is not implemented to the game yet.
