Ah, I see the confusion. Those small site towers are great for dense urban areas like the cities you guys have in the EU and major major (like NYC) cities here in the US
Anywhere else in the US though, they suck because they just don't have the range and power and our cities tend to sprawl. Even in our biggest cities, once you get out of the core, the sprawl gets ridiculous really really fast. These are what you'll typically find around here:
Oh and believe me, those NIMBYs will start complaining about multifamily housing followed by the homeless in the second breath after their rant on cell towers
We have these in Europe too
