For the most part, they are, but it's fashionable to completely ignore that fact.

Who's ignoring it?

Sprawl is HUGE on the east side. Especially north and east of the Montgomery/Pennsylvania area. Basically, areas developed after two-car families became the norm are sprawl.

Technically, they are far worse than just about anything on the West side.

Think about it;

[1 house per 0.7 acres] or [10 houses per acre]

Which is worse?

One has more green space between houses, but it's still clearly
developed land and less attractive than naked desert.

( I like saying "naked." I don't know why. )
