Some call New York City the 'Concrete Jungle.' Well, I've been to NYC many times (10, 20? can't remember), and I can say without a doubt that NYC Concrete Jungle can't beat the Monaco Concrete Jungle. Not even close. People literally live on top of other people's heads. Now I have to go to Hong Kong and Singapore to see if those actually can beat Monaco (which I somehow doubt).
See it for yourself:
(This is Monaco)
Monaco has the world's highest population density. With an area of 0,75
square miles (about 2 sq. km), the population is just over 35,000 (2008).
That is about 18,000 people per square mile! The second most dense
(population-wise) country is Bangladesh with "only" 1,100 people per
sq.mile (total population there is over 162 million people).
Another interesting fact about Monaco is that in their own country, the Monegasques (the native Monaco people) are a minority. They make up only 16% of the country's total population. Isn't it weird?
