The number of individuals per unit of area

Real World Example

Imagine you're trying to find a seat in a crowded movie theater. Just like you assess the number of available seats compared to the number of people already seated, population density measures how many individuals occupy a specific area. In this analogy, the seats represent the available space, and the people represent the individuals, so just as you look for a space in the theater, population density evaluates the concentration of individuals in a given area.
