From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is a list of the cities with the highest population density. Note that the population, population density, and land area for the cities listed are based on the entire city proper, the defined boundary or border of a city or the city limits of the city. It does not consider factors such as the amount of usable land area or urbanized land area of the city. The population density of the cities listed is based on the average amount of people living per square mile or per square kilometer. This list does not refer to the population, population density, or land area of the greater metropolitan area or urban area and also does not target a particular city district of any the cities listed.
