If you convince people to live there, then there’s more places for people to live and the population growth rate goes up. Many folks care about this goal, though idk whether it’s interesting to you specifically.
The US isn’t short on places to live, it’s short on places to live that are short drives from the people and businesses you most want to interact with. If you want to found a new city, there are cheaper and more desireable places to do it; the difficulty comes from the fact that very few people want to go somewhere that doesn’t already have a large critical mass of people, business and infrastructure already in place.
