There are a lot more psychiatric institutions out here in the Northeast, well, because there were a lot more people, especially in the late 1800's when these asylums were first being built. The west and midwestern states were just beginning to become populated in this pre-automobile age.

Thriving cities such as New York, Boston, and Philadelphia had constructed many large state hospitals around them in their heyday, and many have been demolished shortly after abandonment in the 1970's & 1980's - the overall number of state hospitals out here is really quite astounding!

Yeah, pretty much... I think they botched the demolition of the other buildings on the property, the rubble has been sitting there for quite some time. This place must be a nightmare for the EPA.
