Population density
The most and least densely populated states, 2011
Delhi, India's most densely populated state, may have a lower population density than Monaco, which is the world's most densely populated country, or China's Macao region, but it packs in more people per square kilometre than any other country. Arunachal Pradesh, on the other hand, has a higher population density than only sparsely populated countries like Russia, Canada and Australia.
