“All 13 mayors have written letters of support, as well as the CRD,” (the colwood mayor) said. “Because we live on an island, there’s a finite amount of land. I really believe that this is the best option.”
victoria urban density: 4,027 per square mile
metro density: 1,368 per square mile
vancouver island density: 62 per square mile
so about that finite amount of land. if we filled up the island like victoria is we'd have 48.6 million people on the island.
manhattan island has 28,000 people per sq. km. we have 24.8 people per sq. km.
and there are 15 more islands more dense than manhattan in the world.
