While not commonly seen as "living" areas, deserts are full of living creatures and plants. The generally contain their own ecosystems that revolve around the sporadic rainy seasons. The myriad of forms of life have all adapted to living in environments where water is either scarce, or difficult to reach. As such, deserts are "living places" even if they do not appear to be so to the casual observer.

Clarification:

There are millions of people who live in deserts around the world in major towns and cities. In the United States alone there are cities such as Phoenix, Tucson, Las Vegas, Bakersfield, El Paso and others located in deserts and people live quite well there.
