Alaska has the lowest population density in the United States with 1.264 people for every square mile. But the tree population is another story and this island is a good example of crowding. And in spite of living shoulder to shoulder with other trees, the crime rate is very low: the trees seem to get along well with each other. We should take a lesson from Mother Nature . . .
(Note: South Dakota has the 5th lowest population density with just over 10.6 people per square mile. Highest in the United States? New Jersey with 1,205. Washington, DC has a density of 10,357 people per square mile.)

I was expecting a follow-up comment of the crime rate in SD, NJ & DC!
I always enjoy your photos…some much more than others of course. Love the photos from Alaska.
It’s probably because they are all spruce or something. If they were pines, it would be a whole other story.
Now that you mention it, it was a pine that hit Charlie’s car. They can be violent.
Thanks, as always, Colleen.
