Colorado isn't a small state, but is that "raw" square miles, or square miles accounting for reserved land and natural features that make it uninhabitable?

- onlyrealcuzzo 5y agoColorado is not running out of room. Even if 80% of the state is mountains (it's not) - 260 people per square mile is STILL nothing. Massachusetts has 800+ people per square mile, and Massachusetts isn't "full".
- jkmcf 5y agoIf you saw Colorado sprawl, you'd say it's nigh impossible to increase the density, but that's an American problem in general. More problematic is we are all out of water. Water rights and laws here means you might own the land but not the water (nor anything else under the shitty topsoil), if there even is water. Lots of land for sale with no mention of water.
