Service Description:
"In mid-2007 it was estimated that London’s population was 7.56 million (up 44,000 on the previous year). Of these, 3 million lived in inner and central London and 4.56 million in the outer boroughs," states The Mayor's London Plan.  When viewing the entire London area including the outer boroughs, one can clearly see the concentration around the city center.

Census data reveals that population density varies noticeably from area to area. Small area census data do a better job depicting how where the crowded neighborhoods are. 

In this map, the yellow areas of highest density range from 30,000 to 150,000 persons per square kilometer.  In those areas, if the people were spread out evenly across the area, there would be just 4 to 9 meters between them.  Very high density areas exceed 7,000 persons per square kilometer.  High density areas exceed 5,200 persons per square kilometer. The last categories break at 3,330 persons per square kilometer, and 1,500 persons per square kilometer.
