Density Information

Hey All,

I have been looking into density in terms of finding out how it relates to transportation distances. I though it would be pretty useful information for everyone though in terms of helping decide housing, land structure, etc. You can go to this site http://factfinder.census.gov/servlet/GCTTable?_bm=y&-ds_name=DEC_2000_SF1_U&-CONTEXT=gct&-mt_name=DEC_2000_SF1_U_GCTPH1_US25&-redoLog=false&-_caller=geoselect&-geo_id=&-format=US-10|US-10S&-_lang=en or just take my word for it and note that:

density in the US - 80 people per sq. mi.
metropolitan density - 320 people per sq. mi.

*suburban density is about 35% that of metropolitan (from different site) so that puts suburban density (the number we are trying to beat) around 115 people per sq. mi.
