The US is not very dense

Many countries make use of space by cramming people into buildings, subways, public transportation, small apartments, skyscrapers, trains, tiny automobiles, etc.  Yet the US continues to take up more space per person rather than more persons per space.  SUVs and personal vehicles over buses and subways. Apartment buildings, homes, offices and condos that are built short and take more space per unit.  Roads and utilities that stretch for miles.  Huge space between buildings dedicated to parking lots and lawns, or just unused land left to be paved over in the future.  If it were Asia, everything would be like New York.
