How out of touch must one be to even consider this? News flash: the vast majority of mankind lives in what a North American would consider "small places" [0].

Same goes for population density - North American and Australian urban sprawl is largely unknown in most areas of the world. If you want to "study the dynamics" of living closely together in tightly packed spaces, just move to Hong Kong or Singapore for a year.
