Talk:List of city districts by population density

New York City neighborhoods
Manhattan density is given for square miles, but the chart is labeled as km.

Why is Manhattan listed AND Manhattan Community Board 8? There is no other city in the list, only districts and city areas. Manhattan does not belong in this list. NevarMaor (talk) 01:37, 19 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Manhattan isn't a city in it's own right, just one of the five boroughs of New York City. I see your point though, but I'm going to investigate the Community Boards further first. — sjorford++ 20:31, 14 December 2008 (UTC)
 * That discussion was quite awhile ago. However, I'd also like to point out that there is still some confusion in this list.  It could be better to list New York City neighborhoods by their familiar names, and/or further break down these community boards.
 * Community Board 8 is almost synonymous with the Upper East Side. But Yorkville, which is also in this list, is a smaller neighborhood within the Upper East Side.  Because it's within Community Board 8, as this is listed now, there are two overlapping entries (similar to when Manhattan was also listed).
 * NYC Open Data does list Yorkville as having the highest overall population density in the city.
 * If Yorkville is going to be listed separately, then perhaps the other neighborhoods should be as well. There is "Upper East Side-Carnegie Hill", 34,140 per square km, and "Lenox Hill-Roosevelt Island", at 38,425 per square km.  (Roosevelt Island alone has a density of 19,677.)
 * There may be better and more recent sources of data.
 * Manhattan Community Board 7 is basically the Upper West Side. But also broken down into Lincoln Square and Manhattan Valley.
 * Manhattan Community Board 3 is the Lower East Side, the East Village, Alphabet City, part of Chinatown, and Two Bridges
 * Bronx Community Board 5 is Fordham, Morris Heights, Mount Hope, and University Heights.
 * But the NYC data breaks Fordham down as Fordham South, at 45,124, and Bedford Park-Fordham North, at 39,563.
 * It's only a guide so it doesn't have to be perfect, but perhaps it could be clearer.
 * Edit PS: The NYC Department of City Planning tries to explain some of these tricky distinctions between boroughs, Community District Tabulation Areas (CDTAs), and Neighborhood Tabulation Areas (NTAs), as well as Public Use Microdata Areas (PUMAs). Wow!

refs/notes
FYI, I am moving the references/notes to a separate column in the table, there is an issue (bug,kniow feature etc...) with wikitables and sorting. All of the info that is important to the readers is numerical, but when you include any text in the column it treats the whole column as alpha-numeric, and 99 comes after 101 in sorting this way. Just making the sortable table more user (reader) friendly, not modifying the content. If someone knows a better way please show me!--UnQuébécois (talk) 15:30, 11 February 2012 (UTC)

(alternative title: List of districts by population density). The level of the subdivisions listed should be specified. 90.171.144.51 (talk) 18:01, 27 March 2012 (UTC)


 * Not to be fussy, but that's a pretty mangled proposal, what with the piped link and all, which is just confusing. The actual name change proposed on WP:RM is:


 * List of the most densely populated country subdivisions → List of city districts by population density


 * That actually seems like an improvement to me, because "country subdivisions" is unclear as to scale. ENeville (talk) 23:55, 4 April 2012 (UTC)

Updated Figures
Population is changing rapidly particulary in urban areas. This table needs updated population figures. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Yanbugay (talk • contribs) 07:25, 9 April 2012 (UTC)

Budapest
I think Budapest's 7. district with its more than 30K/sqkm should be somewhere in this list (OK, at the very bottom, but still). This list might need an update. Blas3nik (talk) 14:24, 14 August 2013 (UTC)


 * Feel free to update list (with proper source). --Jklamo (talk) 15:52, 14 August 2013 (UTC)

Planned removal of Jabalia Camp as it is not a city district.
Planning on removing Jabalia Camp from the List of City Districts because it appears to be unambiguously not a city district. In fact, the City Column entry for Jabalia Camp states, "None" and includes a Note which states,"The Jabalia Camp is not a city district, but a refugee camp. As such, it is not part of any city . . ." It seems really odd that a place that is explicitly not a city district is in a list of city districts and therefore should be removed.
