While its true that the west has many more acres of National Forest and BLM lands the east is still literally packed with hundreds of dispersed camping areas where you can camp in organized pullouts with fire rings or pullouts with nothing at all.

I have camped all over Tennessee North Carolina West Virginia Virginia Kentucky New Hampshire Maine and never once stayed in a an organized campground with hook ups or Ranger Rick.

Urban camping is not boondocking, and I would only do it if I was desperate.
