- thfuran 7y agoMassachusetts, for example, has a population density of about 340 / sq km
- CydeWeys 7y agoAnd the cities within it are much more highly populated still, with population centers at the East and west ends. The center is relatively less populated.

- CydeWeys 7y agoAgricultural/rural land doesn't need public transportation. The actual space within the US that merits it is a tiny fraction of the country, a much smaller fraction than in more densely populated European countries.
