Is that photo of Wyoming? Good reason it's desolate. Last time I was in Wyoming, it was probably 35 degrees below zero, and the wind was blowing probably 50 mph. The door on my vehicle was almost ripped off when I opened it at a stop in a tiny town.
You'll note, the desirable regions of this country, where there are harbors, good climate, good soil, jobs and an economy, are all but full up.
I personally have zip desire to live on wind swept, frigid plains, where it costs 25 dollars in fuel just to drive to a town.

This one?:
What you say is true, but the issue is overpopulation, not living in Nirvana.
There is a big difference between saying the world is over populated and saying that too many people want to live in the same place you do. A lot of people tend to live in densely populated cities because they like the amenities that come from living where a lot of other people do- like jobs, culture, nightlife, schools ect. The mere fact that a lot of people are in a place doesn’t mean that there aren’t a lot of other fine places for people to live if they will do without the niceties of the city.
You make good points, but I drove across part of Stephenson County in Northwest Illnois today and it looked only slightly more densely populated than to pc in post 15, and we’ve got every amenity of civilization you could want...well, except for a decent hobby shop, but that’s a personal matter, really.
The entire human race could fit in Texas...IIRC, the population density would be less than that of Paris...I’ll do the math later and see how it works out.
