How are countries like Norway and Switzerland not so densely populated considering the fact that they are portrayed as nearly heaven in all aspects?

Because most countries have very strict immigration laws and only allow immigrants in if they can provide valuable skill sets, like being a doctor or engineer

It’s very difficult to immigrate to all the good places like Switzerland and Norway and New Zealand and Australia. They keep the borders tight and only invite the type and number of people that will assist their economies.

Turns out the countries around them are also pretty well off, so people don’t really feel a need to move that much. Also they don’t necessarily have the money to just outright move to a new country. Nor the language ability. And they can have stricter immigration laws.

They are both very mountainous, reducing the available land for settlement. Their effective population density is a lot higher. And the population density of Switzerland isn’t that low to start with.
Norway is very cold. You wouldn’t want to live in the north, and even the south isn’t very nice.
They aren’t “nearly heavenly”. High taxes, high cost of living.
Norway subsidises their country on oil and gas exports. Like how Dubai works, but colder and with less human rights abuses. Switzerland is more sustainable, with banking and precision manufacturing as exports, but that took a bit of a hit lately. They have very strict immigration laws, because, unlike most economies which benefit from immigration providing more workers, all immigration will do is dilute the benefits of their exports.
