      But if part of this is sparsely-populated farmland, being able to compare population density might give us a better picture of where the people really are. It wouldn’t necessarily help us visually compare population, since London doesn’t seem to have a lot of high rise residential buildings, but maybe give a better idea of the sprawl.
