It's easier to be safer from illness that is contagious if you live where it's sparsely populated. Do you?

    Suburbia. Less densely populated than the city, but crowded compared to the Outback.

    No one actually LIVES in the Outback right? Isn't it extremely unfriendly? Thank you for your reply R! Ever visited it though?

    Parts of it, and yes, people live there. Aborigines, cattle station workers and hermits, for the most part.

    But isn't it a harder life? I guess the more RUGGED people are drawn to it? Are parts of it beautiful? Thank you for your reply R. Is it hilly or flatland? What's the weather like? I just thought of another question. :) It ha to do with Skid Rows. :)

    Harder obviously. Mostly flat and arid or semi-arid - the latter is suitable for beef cattle grazing, but you have to keep them moving to where there is feed. That's why Australian beef is very lean, it's all muscle and no fat.

    Just like Aussies! What's going on with Barty? We see tennis matches with no audience no ball kids but we haven't seen her. It's weird watching current time matches that are quiet silent. I really don't like loud crowds....especially New Yorkers... but this is weird. Thank you for your reply R! :)

    Ash is staying put at present - sensible. If the US Open was to be held in Anchorage or Honolulu, it might be worth considering, but NYC has had more COVID-19 cases than all of Australia. Not safe.

    I guess the athletes still practice but practicing and playing in a game are not the same. She's young enough to ride this through. I worry about Roger Federer. Whenever it's safe to come back will he be able to? He'd heading toward 40. Oh well. Fingers crossed etcetera and so forth. Thank you for your reply R. Gosh I sure miss the good old days of last year! :)

    Of course. Just look at where the hot spots are....it is not the entire state. It is the large cities.
