• I have to tell you, there’s plenty of farmed land on the entire west coast this map does not depict. Less than half of the areas labeled timberlands are forested, as a generous estimate.

    Edit: as the comments under this state, I just didn’t understand what was being represented and how.

    • I don’t think this map shows where those things are, just how big they are in total. I’m not from the USA but I’m guessing there isn’t just one gigantic ass national park up north and no more parks anywhere else.

      • You’re very much right! About 30/50 of our states have a national park, and every state has state parks. For example, Nebraska has only 8, while California has a whopping 284! The mean though is 45.6, which is still quite high.
