Population density (people per km 2) by country. This is a list of countries and dependencies ranked by population density, sorted by inhabitants per square kilometre or square mile. The list includes sovereign states and self-governing dependent territories based upon the ISO standard ISO 3166-1.
However, if only the Earth's land area of 150,000,000 km 2 (58,000,000 sq mi) is taken into account, then human population density is 53/km 2 (140/sq mi). This includes all continental and island land area, including Antarctica. However, if Antarctica is excluded, then population density rises to over 58 per square kilometre (150/sq mi). [1]
This is a list of countries showing past and future population density, ranging from 1950 to 2300, as estimated by the 2017 revision of the World Population Prospects database by the United Nations Population Division. The population density equals the number of human inhabitants per square kilometer of land area.
The world's population is over 8 billion [38] and Earth's total surface area (including land and water) is 510 million square kilometres (197 million square miles). [39] Therefore, the worldwide human population density is 8 billion ÷ 510 million km 2 (197 million sq mi) = 15.7 people/km 2 (41 people/sq mi).
