Our own solar system is outside the central part of the galaxy and a bit off the ecliptic plane. There isn't that much around us. The central core of the Galaxy could be populated, wars raging around us, and we're the equivalent of a mountain village in Laos.
But could you imagine being one of these floater solar systems? We at least can reach some star systems in generation ships. They would would need much more.
If 1/2 of stars are outside of feasible colonization distances that changes the Fermi paradox formula quite a bit.
