The #1 factor in snow handling is the quality of tires. A good set of all-season tires (or better yet, snow tires) will go a long ways in stopping you from getting stuck or sliding around.
Subaru's AWD system is pretty good in the snow (at least I assume so since a lot of people in Alaska drive them!). But I've noticed people with AWD and 4WD tend to put a little TOO much faith in it and don't take into account that it doesn't help with stopping or cornering. FWD with good tires should be enough to get you around, assuming they plow and salt the roads in a timely manner in your parts.
If you're out in the boonies, then a 4WD with high clearance like a Ford Explorer, Chevy Tahoe, etc. might be a better idea.

most front wheel drive cars are decent in the snow. The toyota corolla is a very reliable and reasonable.

I have a Chevy Blazer and live up North. Believe me, it has been excellent to me in Snow, ice, and sleet!
