I suppose the size of the territory and landscape is what makes all the difference.

Macau is amazingly densely populated, but at the same time the same density as Paris, but 1/3 of the size. It's an hour walk from one end to the other according to Google Maps.

India on the other hand is just 10% denser than Belgium, but doesn't feel like that when you look at photos of its cities and trains loaded with people.

It's more about designing good systems. Belgium is a developed country with excellent infrastructure whereas India is a developing country with poor infrastructure
