population density

The number of people living in a given area, usually expressed as people per square kilometre. It is calculated by dividing the population of a region by its area.

Population density provides a useful means for comparing population distribution. Densities vary considerably over the globe.

High population densities may amount to overpopulation where resources are scarce.
