The 100 largest private landowners in the U.S. own 40 million acres—an area the size of Florida.
An interactive map really lays out the whos and wheres.
The top 100 private landowners have property in 39 states for any number of purposes—investment, conservation, tax benefits or just the bragging rights that come with owning big pieces of America. This map shows approximately 35 million acres of their holdings, or 87% of the total, across 31 states, based on a Bloomberg analysis of local property records and data from Pitney Bowes and Acre Value.
The whole thing is @ Bloomberg - Are you a robot?
I’ve never heard of a lot of these people but Ted Turner and John Malone certainly are known to many,
