The United States has an interesting population distribution. You can find any number of videos talking about why so many more people live on the eastern half of the country. But what's rarely talked about is this large empty belt in the middle of the country that has less than 1% of the total U.S. population. In this video, we go over some of the reasons why this area, from Canada to Mexico, is so relatively underpopulated.
