Countries and Regions by Population Density

Definition, source data and method

Population density is population divided by land area. Land-area values primarily use World Bank / FAOSTAT 2023; five countries or regions without a usable value are supplemented from official government or public-authority publications. Their definitions are not claimed to be perfectly identical. These values and ranks are calculated by KOKKI EARTH, not published as this ranking by the UN or World Bank. KOKKI EARTH ranks the same 198 countries and regions used throughout the site. Rankings may therefore differ from datasets that list additional territories or dependencies separately.

Ranks use the unrounded calculated value. Displays use up to one decimal place; equal displayed values do not share a rank when their unrounded values differ.
