In the east you have to do some homework to find excellent boondocking locations.
I agree the area is built up but the spots are out there!
In Vermont there is the Green Mountain National Forest with plenty of spots for boondocking.
In New Hampshire there is the White Mountains et al.
In Maine there is the famous "Maine Northwoods"... A huge wilderness area.
Massachusetts...forget about it.
New York is not all city...the vast 6+ million acres of the Adirondacks gives you plenty of space.
Pennsylvania (Penn's Woods) has an abundant supply of remote areas.
Virginia and West Virginia have no shortage of wood hills and both state and federal land.
Time to study state maps, federal resources for National Forests etc. if you want to boondock in the east you can find a lifetime of locations to please any taste...deserts however are in short supply!
Plenty of my friends say I live in the boondocks up here on the NY/Vermont line with the Adirondacks in one direction and the Green Mountains in the other....we do however have electric most of the time...but a big shortage of neighbors...unless you count deer and cayotes.
Happy Camping
