Seems like just another case of r/peopleliveincities

States with lots of cities (California, Texas) are skewed smaller. Even though the lot sizes in those cities are large compared to other cities

Well another part is that Western states have a greater percentage of their land owned by the Federal government. So, looking at Nevada, where over 80% of the land is owned by the feds skews how much could be developed. In New England, the feds have such a small percentage of land, it’s laughable, so those states can build almost anywhere.
