Did you know that :
1. Greater Bombay's population - 19mn; If Greater Bombay were a country, it would list 54 in the world - bigger than 174 countries (stats from 04')
2. Population density (99); Belgium - 333 p/km2; Netherlands- 385p/km2; India-304p/km2;Mumbai-15000p/km2
3. 2/3rd of the people are crowded in 5% of the area; 1/3rd who are the rent protected occupy 95% of the areaWell, these obviously are no big effort of mine.
Neat reproduction from Sukhetu Mehta's "Maximum City".. Nice non-fiction book about Mumbai city.
