The USA is an extremely rich, vast, and fertile land, only 3% of it is not rural. Much of it is arable soil with an abundance of wildlife.
But the laws on fishing rights and hunting make it impossible to live in the traditional way except for on private land or reservation land. All of the land is accounted for, they are not making more of it. And honestly I don’t get why people litter in natural spaces. It’s why I like being way out in the boondocks or far off the trail. It’s also where all the large game is, that was smart enough to avoid humans and hunters.
