Population movement between areas (in-migration over out-migration)
Total number of people
Population density of an area
How is population density calculated?
Total population divided by total land area (km2)
Total land area (km2) multiplied by total population.
Total population plus the total land area (km2).
When people are attracted to an area it becomes densely populated. Factors that influence this are:
Temperate climate
Fertile land
All of the above
Population density is:
The average number of people per square kilometre (for the area being studied)
