About 75% of the people in Germany live in towns, 25% live in rural 
communities. Suburban is included in "towns" - actually, more people live 
in suburbs than in the inner cities.  In the US, the rural population is 
down to 18% now, so a bit more concentrated than Germany.  This trend to 
urbanization is world-wide, developed countries are ahead, developing 
countries have more people living in rural places (China: about half, 
India: 2/3).

The size of a typical farm in Germany is considerably smaller than in the 
US (438 Acres in the US=177 hectare, 56 hectare in Germany). 1 Acre=0.404 
hectare.  Though in east Germany, the farms are considerably larger, due 
to communist collectivism in the 1950s, which was revised in theory, but 
in practice many people who were driven out of their farms in the 1950s 
didn't want to become farmers again.  So no, we don't have that much the 
problem of dynastic wealth.

The "best places to live in" for a long time has no US city in the 
top-10; some smaller towns like Sausalito still might make it, but it is 
probably just contributing to San Francisco's place 27.  Instead, Vienna, 
Zurich, Auckland, and Munich are the top 4.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mercer_Quality_of_Living_Survey

There was no US city whatsoever in the top 10, half were German 
speaking.  The top five cities in north America were all in Canada; San 
Francisco had place 27 (top US city, I think that is well deserved, with 
Boston and Honolulu next, also deserved).  So German quality of life is 
much better than Hugh's deplorable life as homeless taxi driver living in 
his car.

The ignorant-about-the-rest-of-the-world-index while feeling exceptional 
and much better off than anybody else has the top-100 cities all in the 
US ;-).  One problem is that most US citizens never leave the US.  Yes, 
you always argue "the US is soooo big, we don't need to go elsewhere", 
but Europe is big, too, and you don't need a passport for the Schengen 
treaty region.  Yet most of the US citizens who travel outside the US are 
either jet setters on business trips or immigrants visiting their 
relatives.
