TBH, that's not a bad wear pattern, aside from being as bald a cue ball. The alignment, balance, and inflation are all pretty good, the tire is just completely shot. Most of the time you'll see pretty bad wear patterns on tires that are allowed to go that far, because people that can't afford tires usually can't afford alignments either.

They must be somewhere that doesn’t salt and maintains its roads.

Does such a mystical place exist?

Probably somewhere that doesn't snow or freeze over, and thus has reasonable maintenance costs. It's mainly ice that breaks up the roads, after all. Normal wear and tear will do it too, of course, but water freezing and expanding in the cracks makes the problem exponentially worse every time.
