We have a long way to go before reaching the population density of The
Netherlands, or even Belgium.


What's it like just for England and Wales? Scotland is quite a large
chunk with a small population.


England considered as a separate country would be the 30th most densely
populated territory in the world (413/sq km), the place currently held
by The Netherlands (406/sq km)


And, to localise that even further, the local authority areas most
representative of that population density are Tendring, Essex (Frinton-on-
Sea, Clacton, Harwich) and Mid-Sussex (E. Grinstead, Haywards Heath).

Hardly inner-city hellholes with people crammed on top of each other, are
they?
