Least densely populated countries by population-weighted density
These are the 20 least densely populated countries by population-weighted density (PWD). PWD measures the average number of people living within a given distance of the average person in a given location. It is a measure of effective population density, so that large swathes of uninhabited land do not count against a country's measurement.
