I get what you’re trying to say, but that’s already what the word inhospitable means. It doesn’t mean it makes life impossible or near impossible, it just means it makes conditions harsh for life.
inhospitable (adjective)
(of an environment) harsh and difficult to live in
It slows microbes down but generally doesn’t kill them. I put sourdough starter in the fridge between bakes so I don’t have to feed it as often. The refrigerator is hospitable to life when that you just want to “chill.”

Oh! TIL! Thank you!
You’re welcome! =)
Right, Arizona’s by some measures inhospitable but there are cities there.
