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 2000 United States census had shown the population density of the city itself was 12,750.3 people per square mile (4,923.0/km 2), making it one of the nation's most densely populated cities. There were 1,152,868 housing units at an average density of 5,075.8 per square mile (1,959.8/km 2).
Population density is defined as the population divided by land area. Data are from the US Census unless otherwise specified. Population data are for the year 2023 [2] and area data are for the year 2010. [3] Some population estimates for territories are from the United Nations Commission on Population and Development. [4]
The following is a list of incorporated places in the United States with a population density of over 10,000 people per square mile.

The population density of the cities listed is based on the average number of people living per square kilometer or per square mile.

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]
