A simple map of population density across the US should clearly show that lebensraum is not the problem indeed. It's more a question of places that are both desirable for the opportunities they offer, while being affordable.

lebensraum

Is this a loanword?

By far the best website in the world for over 20 years now, I hope it never dies or enshittifies.

I'm swiss german and Lebensraum is a word, which is why i asked. Who knew there's some nazi concept associated with it.

Thanks for the link!

I don't think it's a loanword as such, hence my italicising it. I was using it as a reference to the nazi.

Yup, learned of that after.
