11. Population Density Learning Objective • To learn why some places are densely populated whilst others are sparsely populated. • All pupils to define what densely and sparsely populated mean. • Most pupils can identify reasons why people do or do not want to live in a place. • Some pupils can identify places where there are high or low populations

12. What does this map show???

13. Population density DENSLEY populated = there are lots of people in one area SPARSLEYpopulated = there are few people in one area. 1 km 1 km = 10 people

14. Why are some places really crowded and others not?

15. What’s the density? Some areas of the world are more populated than others. • We use population density as a measure of how many people live in a set area. • Population density is measured in people per square kilometre (km2). Population density = Number of people/Area(km2) India has a population of 1,103,371,000 and covers 3,287,263km2. The population density of India is 336.

28. What affects where we live? Flat land Mountains Dense forest Lowland Open grassland Good farming Unreliable water supply Deep, rich soils Thin, poor soils Job opportunities Poor farming Deserts Extension: choose a location which you have visited. Was it densely or sparsely populated? What are the reasons for this? Write a paragraph to describe and explain your location.

29. Where would you prefer to live in a densely or sparsely populated place ?Why?

30. Do the factors increase or decrease natural change?

31. Density vs distribution Density figures only tell us how many people live in an area. To describe the way people are distributed around an area we need to talk about the population distribution. • The population can be evenly spread. • The population can also be clustered around one specific location. • Alternatively, the population can be randomly distributed. Often, distribution of the population is affected by factors of physical and human geography.

32. Describing distribution When describing population distribution there are guidelines that should be followed. • Describe the obvious pattern. Where do most people live? What areas are most populated? • Give figures, if available, and locations. Using accurate figures helps support your description. • Give any exceptions to the ‘obvious pattern’. Are there areas that do no fit in with the general population distribution? A choroplethmap is a very accurate tool to use when describing population distribution.

34. In the World come up with 3 ... Densely Populated areas in the World Sparsely Populated areas in the World

35. World Population Density Learning Objectives -To explore areas in the world where there is a dense and sparse population density. -All pupils can state an area that is sparsely populated in the world. 3 -Most pupils can identify an area in the world that is densely populated and why. 4/5 -Some pupils can describe the world population density. 5/6

36. Reminder Population Density • People are unevenly distributed around the world. The difference in distribution is measured by comparing population density - the number of people per square kilometre (km²). • Population density is determined more by environmental factors which make an area more or less attractive to settlers than by economic development.

37. Reminder Population Distribution • The way in which people are spread across a given area is known as population distribution. • Patterns of population distribution tend to be uneven. For example, in the UK there are more people living in the southeast of England than in Wales.
