Population density Population density is the number of people in an area. It is worked out by dividing the total population by the total area. It is usually given as the number of people per square Kilometre (p/km2) Places that are crowded are said to be densely populated. Places that have few people are to be sparsely populated.

In Malta, the most densely populated areas are those around the Harbours. This are is known as the Inner Harbour region. Towns not touching the harbours but still near to them are referred to as the Outer Harbour Region. The towns in the Inner Harbour and the Outer Harbour form the Harbour Conurbation. The area with the lowest population density is the countryside.
