Australia has the largest average house block in the world (or close to it) at 400m2. A lot of the older-style houses are 700m2 blocks.
People have been subdivided and densifying older blocks, building two houses on one block.
Working off a criminal sentence for a decade then receiving emancipation and ownership of large land holdings was the original lifestyle of the convicts sent over to AUS. It's in the culture to value land.
One of our five major cities covers the distance of greater london measured north-to-south and has a population of 2.3mil, compared against 13mil for london.
We need to make the Bush/Desert liveable. People don't realize how much work goes into maintaining housing outside the 'butter zone' where everything works.
There's more thought put into terraforming Mars than there is, keeping salt out of the wind in the outback, or making it economical and affordable to keep wildlife out of your housing, or transporting water large distances for cheap. Basically we need rivers in the desert.
