The same extrapolations happen with population density. People in LA and New York think the world is overpopulated and everyone is on top of each other. They don't realize that 45 minutes north east of San Francisco there are no houses, no street lights and no cell phone reception.

What are you talking about? I don't know anyone in Los Angeles who believes this. I doubt very many people in NY or SF believe it either.
