[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I googled Washington Heights population density and got 120,000 people per square mile.

So, no.[/quote]

Oh, well, as long as you found some random person on the Internet to confirm what you apparently already want to believe, that's all that matters, right?

You could also look at real numbers, such as from the Furman Center at New York University, which studies population density. They say that in 2010 there was actually only one area in NYC that had more than 100,000 people per square mile (the Upper East Side). They put Washington Heights at 66,000.

See Table 1.1 here:

OK, so according to them, most of NYC had a population density of less than 100,000 per square mile, based on 2010 Census data - including areas in Manhattan.

Now, how about those neighborhoods in DC? There's Washigton Heights/Inwood with 66,000 people per square mile (in 2010). What neighborhoods in DC have higher population densities?[/quote]
