Cheap land! More opportunities for the oligarch class.
The largest private landowners in the US West are the Emmerson family, John Malone, and Stan Kroenke, who own vast tracts of land primarily for timber and ranching. Other major holders include Ted Turner, who owns large ranches, and the Reed family, who manage significant timberland.
Bill Gates owns land across the United States, primarily for investment, with his largest holdings in Louisiana, Arkansas, and Nebraska. He owns over 268,000 acres of U.S. farmland spread across 19 states and also has land in other states like Arizona and Florida. Additionally, he owns property in locations with homes, such as Washington and California.
