Maybe so, but I'm sure that good guesses are possible. Basically, further from the equator, away from oceans, and higher altitude. And away from large cities. I wonder about some of those "useless" Chinese cities, for example.

Most of those "useless" chinese cities are filling up now. All of those stories were like looking at a brand new housing estate before any of the houses were on sale.
