Population map of Europe
South England has a lot of tennis courts for the population
Is it? Isn’t it the most densely populated area in Europe?
Very interesting question, I had to do some research to find out (especially since the Brexit and UK is not included in Eurostat data anymore)
If we look at NL vs England
- NL has a density of 424 hab/km² (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_and_dependencies_by_population_density)
- England has 434 hab/km² (https://www.ons.gov.uk/peoplepopulationandcommunity/populationandmigration/populationestimates/bulletins/annualmidyearpopulationestimates/mid2021#population-change-for-uk-countries)
- (the UK as a whole has 279)
This map shows the difference, in the NL it’s more spread while in England it’s focused on the big cities
