It's not a stillness from lack of people. I live in a city of 120k. It's the way snow dampens sound. Also, I know that lots of people don't want to live here, that's obvious. I'm saying that there are also many people who do want to live here. Someone asked the question of why people want to live in climates like this. I'm answering the question from the (subjective) perspective of someone who does. You are needlessly confrontational in trying to impose your logic on other people's decisions.
