18,147.6 per square mile. Most densely populated city in New England, and I doubt many places outside  of the northeast can compare.

The Warsaw Ghetto reached 200,000 per square mile in incredibly unsanitary and overcrowded conditions.

Kind of distorted by our having a giant swath of industrial land, and the second biggest city park in the U.S.

I've always wished that there were a statistic to show how many people the median resident had within a one-mile radius.  Hard to calculate, but seems like it would better represent true population density.
And then there's calculations of "daytime residents". Ever seen those?

Yeah, I remember once seeing a map that showed daytime vs. nighttime residents by city block in Seattle.  It also had a few other cities, IIRC.  I totally wish I knew where that was still.

I have no idea. It is an old, boring northeastern suburb of Phoenix. The difference is the amount of rain we get. 2 inches more than Phoenix.

Cool, I'd never heard of that.

I did see this place on Life After People. It doesn't compete with Kowloon Walled City, but I think it matches the Warsaw Ghetto.
