If an area has high density but food, water and housing facilities are well organised, which conclusion is correct?

Correct answer: Density is high, but management can handle the pressure

Correct answer: A. High density only tells us that many people live in each unit of area; it does not by itself prove that living conditions are unsafe or that a crisis exists. The effects of density depend partly on the availability and organisation of food, water, housing, sanitation, transport and other services. If these facilities are planned well and can meet people’s needs, the area may manage a high population density successfully. B is incorrect because high density can create pressure, but pressure is not always an unavoidable crisis. C is incorrect because services are central to understanding how density affects people. D is incorrect because density remains a valid measure even when facilities are good. A useful warning is not to judge a place from one number alone. Memory cue: density measures concentration; management determines how well people can live with that concentration.
