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.
The mainland of Singapore measures 50 kilometres (31 mi) from east to west and 27 kilometres (17 mi) from north to south with 193 kilometres (120 mi) of coastline. These figures are based on 2.515 metres (8 ft 3.0 in) High Water Mark cadastral survey boundaries. [2] It has an exclusive economic zone of 1,067 km 2 (412 sq mi).

Since independence, the contemporary government of Singapore has continued to increase the size of the island, having increased the area of the main island from 580 km 2 (224 sq mi) in the 1960s to 710 km 2 (274 sq mi) today.

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]
