What to Focus On

  • Population distribution is the spatial arrangement of people on the earth’s surface.
  • About 90% of the world population lives on about 10% of the land area.
  • The 10 most populous countries contribute about 60% of the world’s population.

  • Density of population is the ratio of population to area.
  • It is measured in persons per sq km.
  • Density = Population / Area.

  • Availability of water, landforms, climate, and soils are geographical factors.
  • Minerals, urbanisation, and industrialisation are economic factors.
  • Religious or cultural significance and social or political unrest are social and cultural factors.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Population density means the number of people compared to the amount of people living there.

Population growth and population growth rate mean the same thing.

Natural growth and actual growth of population are the same because both involve births and deaths.
