From memory, most of the population of the UK resides in just 2% of the land.
I couldn't find the stat (I heard it on the radio) but there's this[1]:
> 91% of Scotland’s population live in 2% of its land area
Scotland does have large areas of barely lived on land but it's still surprising to see this stat, so I wouldn't think Kentucky's stat, even though I've never been there.
