To be fair, and no spoilers, but I'm not sure The Expanse qualifies for this request, technically. (As a huge fan of the books and series both)
The belters make a pretty solid example of what it sounds like OP is looking for. The entire setting doesn't match to a T but there's enough interaction with inhospitable environments to be worth looking into, I think.
See above 🤗
Corey goes into pretty good detail about how they made Eros, Ganymede, and the generation ship livable. Seems like they qualified.
Clearly, that's not the aspect I was hinting at. >!The first part of the request is the relevant section, not the "bonus points", all due respect: "earth (and earthlike[sic] worlds) are too rare, inaccessible, and/or previously spoiled beyond ability to sustain life."!<
Hmmm, I just read that to mean there was some reason people had to terraform or create an artificial habitat, not that it had to be that specific plot point.
