Reclusiveness does not necessarily connote geographical isolation. A recluse may live in a crowded city, but infrequently leave the security of his or her home. However, isolated and sparsely populated states (''e.g.'', Montana , Wyoming , and Alaska ) and countries (''e.g.'', New Zealand or Australia ) often harbor recluses, who are often seeking complete escape from Civilization .
