For comparison, France is 112 per square mile - or only 28% as densely populated as England.

Just for a "fair" comparison, my city (Chubbuck) has 2743/sq mile. Most of the county is mountains with few houses.

I don’t know what is going on with the Brits. They use to be a tough people but now they are letting other people take them over. In time, they will be a muslim nation. Is this our future also?

South Dakota has 10/sq mi, which goes down to about 2/sq mi when you take out the two biggest towns. That’s about right.

Well, Hong Kong and Singapore has 16,000/sq mile. S. Korea has 1,200 pe square mile, and Zimbabwe has 85/sq mi, Haiti has 335 /sq. km (775 / sq mi).

There is not a lot of correlation between population density and wealth. Many of the poorest countries are not denseley populated at all.

England is also blessed with a large percentage of useable land.

The fact that almost 20% of the population lives in or around one city, London, tells me that the country is far from over-crowded.

As Tony Blair once said about the U.S., “A simple way to take measure of a country is to look at how many want in and how many want out.” This applies here as well.

Looks like the skipped Scotland and Northern Ireland. They are barren in comparison. Wales is probably close to England.

This doesn’t include numbers for Scotland, N Ireland, Wales and various small islands. England is far more crowded than the above mentioned,
