I ran across this map of light pollution across the United States, and thought it would be a nice addition, especially since the pollution map has a county breakdown. More light equals more people, so we can use this as a tool for population density and retreat selection.

Another tool for population density is in most people's pockets. It is your cell phone and the number of bars that are available at your location. I would consider this a financial population density tool, since most companies are not going to build towers for very low rates of return on their investments.
Sweetheart and I had a short discussion on cell phone coverage and our future retreat location(s) selection.
I have provided one cell phone coverage map, and I imagine that a more complete search will provide even more maps. This is just to provide an visual example:

Perhaps, a cell phone coverage map of your state would provide a more detailed image for your use?
Just food for thought. Comments are always welcomed an encouraged.
