If you compare the top city on this listâManilaâto the most densely populated city in the U.S.âNew York Cityâthe difference is staggering. New Yorkâs population density is 26,402 people per square mileâless than a quarter the population density of Manila!
If we look at the complete metropolitan area of a city, Tokyo comes out on top with around 35 million residents. But with the cityâs metropolitan area being the largest in the world, covering a whopping 5,000+ square miles, the total population might be impressive but the density isnât. Manila â the worldâs most dense metropolis. The worldâs most dense city is located in the Philippines. The city itself (excluding its suburban regions) has a relatively small population of 1.6 million, but with this area covering less than 15 square miles, Manila wins hands down on the urban density scale. 111,000 people per square mile? Impressive stuff.
