This is really cool! I stared at it for a long time just looking at how nicely and interestingly it's depicted! Good job!

Paris is actually pretty small by area, especially compared to the other cities you listed. Paris is ~100 km² while Mumbai is ~600 km². Paris has a population ~2 mil and Mumbai has a population of about 12 mil so they're very close.

This chart is just weird because it doesn't define "city" and OP just ripped their data straight from the Wikipedia page "List of cities proper by population density" without any real thought or research about the topic. It does feel like a karma grab. But you also shouldn't say it's wrong just because other cities feel like they should be denser.

Bnei Brak sounds legit

Yeah damn. Didn't know they go that high.

I had do a double take when I saw Vincennes. I knew it couldn’t have been the one in Indiana.

לא יודע. העיר עצמה, הבניינים והרחובות, די יפים לדעתי.

Oh absolutely. Manhattan is definitely unique in the respect that it has downtown-style density from top to bottom.

ירושלים חור. אחת הערים הכי עניות בישראל, לולא משרדי הממשלה שם והתמיכה מהמדינה היא הייתה גרועה בדיוק כמו בני ברק.

לא ידעתי.

חילונים הם פחות מ15% מאוכלוסיית ירושלים. אין מה להשוות בכלל, זה אפילו לא קרוב.

Incredible to look at. Great work on this. Creative and beautiful. Sad data though.

נראה לך שיש יותר תושבים בת״א מחילונים בירושלים ?

Sure, but it's set up like a traditional city, with a downtown near the water, and less dense neighborhoods the further you get from that city center.

Note, too, that they only use three or four skyscrapers as representations of the data, using them repeatedly, and not even at the same height. Data may be beautiful, but this is graphically terrible.

כי מרבית תושבי ירושלים ערבים או חרדים.

Did the missing soldiers die, or leave otherwise?

I mean…this mixes cities with counties/boroughs….

Banks aren't tricking anyone- they make it really clear in your statement what your interest rate is. These people are buying things they wouldn't otherwise be able to because they are using credit.

We live in a free society. People should be allowed to make bad decisions. And if one has any interest and an internet connection, all the information he would ever need is a few clicks away.

אתה רוצה לדעת משהו מעניין? ירושלים היא ה:

1. בירה
2. העיר עם הכי הרבה תושבים
3. השטח הכי גדול

ועדיין ת״א נחשב כ״עיר המרכזית״ של ישראל

Thank God they selected those buildings that clearly enhance visual differences, and not 50 shades of 2 shades of gray like others.

כפר עם מאות אלפי תושבים? רוב הערים בעולם לא עם מיליונים, אתה יודע.

No Chinese or Indian cities?

A major part of the space in a city isn't dedicated to residential buildings, but to utilities- roads, parking schools, supermarkets etc etc. Roads is the most major issue with skyscrapers - streets in Manhattan are as wide as highways.

There is also the matter of space between buildings - Skyscrapers usually require some empty space around them, while smaller buildings can be built without any space between them at all (what we call in Israel "Train blocks").

Skyscrapers do allow to cramp more living space overall, yes, but they aren't that much more efficient. Manhattan is still one of the most densely populated places in the world, but cities like Bnei Brak with buildings 4 stories tall can still compete with it, if they house more people per apartment.
