Look at the actual density of Wind it’s insane.

Turbines limit how close other turbines can be located, but nothing stops you using that land for other purposes. Nobody is going to complain their corn, cows, or house aren’t seeing high wind speeds.

Meanwhile the plant operator would strongly object to someone building their house inside the exclusion zone, that land is actually occupied.

Good point, but IIRC windmills make enough noise that few would want to live below one?
