Social isolation is, on a population level, associated with poor health outcomes. The data shows this most strongly in the elderly, but it’s true at all ages.

Of course, certain individuals may enjoy and thrive in isolated environments.

I was saying that there are people who live long lives in relative isolation. People in rural parts of the US and places like Alaska.

Frankly, I believe those types of studies rreally about happiness with ones social life, not about ones social life relative to others. But that's just my take.
