Abstract

The term density is related to population size and the land area with a view to assessing the pressure of population upon the resources of the area. Thus, it is a measure of the incidence of population concentration and is generally expressed in terms of persons/km2 of land area. The population density of sample village during the census periods of 1991, 2001, and 2011 was 790, 1009 and 2015 respectively an analysis has been done for the year 1991 -2011. The concentration of population per unit area has increased over the three decades. The density of population is more near the city region. The present paper explained about population densities and its changes from 1991 to 2011 of sample village.
