It's also a bad example of density for a major North American city. Toronto (4,334.4/km2) has lower pop. density than San Francisco (7,255.12/km2), and Boston (5,531.93/km2) and its nearest comparison is probably Chicago (4,573.98/km2).

"Toronto" now officially includes things like North York, Etobicoke, etc, which are car-centric, post-WW2 bedroom communities.

Old Toronto is 8,210.4/km2 (21,265/sq mi):

Even Etobicoke may not be very low-density in places like Long Branch and Mimico.
