> the 10M residents of Sweden are much more spread than in MA. Probably not. Swedes are a fairly urban people, many living in blocks of flats in cities. Here is what Wikipedia has to say about Stockholm: Population (31 December 2019)[3][4][5]
• Capital city 975,904
• Density 5,200/km2 (13,000/sq mi)
• Urban[6] 1,605,030
• Urban density 4,200/km2 (11,000/sq mi)
• Metro 2,377,081
• Metro density 360/km2 (940/sq mi)
And here is Boston: Population (2019)[2][3][4][5][6]
• City 692,600
• Density 14,344/sq mi (5,538/km2)
• Urban 4,180,000 (US: 10th)
• Metro 4,628,910 (US: 10th)[1]
So Sweden might be twenty times the size but the urban population density is not so wildly different. |
