extreme conditions
desert (to hot and dry)
the poles (ice and cold )
many people actually live in rain forests,Borneo,Java ,Congo,Amazon, everywhere ,they just are not regular civilized people ,below the canopy of the trees it can be very comfortable
swamps are difficult because of the insects .few people can live in swamps .
and in Africa ,and the Middle east
are some nomadic tribes that live in desert conditions
even near the poles are the Eskimos
so its not so much the climate alone which puts people off i can be the insects as well and lack of water ,excess heat or cold and of course food

The Polar Ice Climate Zone is the least inhabited. It exists only in Antarctica, the Greenland interior and high altitudes.
Antarctica has a permenant population of 0, the only people who 'live' there are scientists and researches (and some tourists). The Greenland interior has virtually no permenant settlements, the settlements in Greenland being along the ice free coast. There are some nomadic people as there are at the higher altitudes.
There sre several vegatation types that support almost no permenant human habitation including Freshwater, Marine and Estuarine Wetlands - by virtue of the fact that these are primarily bog, marsh and water means buildings can't be erected unless on piles of stilts.
These vegatation types have sub-types: Mangal (mangrove), Coastal Salt Marsh, Marine Meadow and Surfweed, Sphagnum and Mire, Forested Wetlands, Desert Springs, Desert Oases, Shallow Lacustrine and High Meadow, Vernal Pool Ephemeral. Freshwater Marsh and Herbaceous Swamp
A further vegatation type with little human habitation is Arctic and Temperate Alpine Tundra .
All the above are pretty uninhabitable and support very low populations, as tho specifically which is the least inhabited - don't know, I'd suggest marine and estuarine wetlands due to the inability to built there, no freshwater, no agricultural land, restricted animal populations etc.
