LEO is a weird place to colonize. There aren't any resources there. The moon is also pretty tough, being no atmosphere and Carbon in ppb quantities. Mars is a good candidate, though.
I imagine that if there were another planet in the solar system capable of supporting native life with just 18th-century technology, we would already have sent people there, even if it were a multi-year trip. Which would provide big economic drivers for interplanetary transport.
