Is these numbers for city propers? In that case it's pretty useless.

Get some numbers for the
urban areas instead and it's starting to get interesting.
From what I know - Vancouver (the urban area) is quite sprawly, right?
I don't know how large the built-up area (ie. urban area) for Hong Kong is but I guess it's less than 100 km2 (~39 sq. miles) (?) and has a population of over 7 million people. That's density for you right there.
My hometown Malmö has an urban area of some 42 km2 (~16 sq. miles) and holds approx. 300.000 inhabitants. The metro area (Malmö alone, not including Copenhagen) is probably more than 10 times that size by area, and only holds 600.000 - so metropolitan areas are not the best definition when comparing density.
