Mumbai has an population density is estimated to be about 22,000 persons
per square kilometre. Calgary has a population density of  about 1,400
persons per square kilometre. New York has about 10,000 per square
kilometre.

I think the real question is what kind of city do we want it to be, and
how close together are the houses going to be.
For my current view on this city, I'd probably vote for around 5,000 per
square kilometre; maybe a little lower even.

Just my re fepni.

Cheers, lorx.
