If a district has large total area but a very small habitable part, what problem can general density hide?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Actual concentration in the habitable part

Correct answer: A, the actual concentration in the habitable part. General or arithmetic density is calculated by dividing the total population by the total geographical area. However, the total area may include deserts, steep mountains, forests, wetlands, or other places where few people can live. If this unusable land is included in the denominator, the calculated average may look low even though people are crowded into the small habitable portion. Therefore, planners should also examine population per unit of habitable or cultivable land when studying real pressure on land and services. Option A is correct because it identifies the hidden crowding. B is unrelated to density, C only identifies the time of data collection, and D is not a meaningful geographical measure. Memory cue: total-area density is an average; usable-area density reveals actual crowding.
