... but Paris is one of the densest cities in the world? Nearly twice the density of Osaka.

The problem with those listings is they count by the city's full area and not just the urban area. So for example Hong Kong is often listEd low. Go to HK and you'll quickly understand why that way of measuring is wrong.

It's not really a fair comparison because Osaka has twice the area of Paris. My ward has the same density than Paris.
