For example, West Hollywood is ranked as the most walkable city in California (by Walkscore), has a population density of ~19000 people/sqmi, is ~60% individual households, and ~80% of the housing is rented.

- et2o 11y agoManhattan's population density is around 70,000/square mile. This is pretty low, comparably.
