In terms of population density, Florida has a surface area of 65,755 square miles (170,304 square kilometers). Based on estimates, that equates to 353.4 people per square mile, (136.4 per square kilometer) and that makes it the eighth most densely populated state in the US.
New York Population:
27,000 people per square mile
New York has the highest population density of any major city in the United States, with over 27,000 people per square mile. Over 3 million of New York City's residents are foreign-born; over one-quarter arrived in 2000 or later. Nearly 2 million New Yorkers are under the age of 18.
Let's go with an Apples to Apples comparison. Most of Florida's population is densely gathered near the coast, 43% of the State of NY is in NYC. Because when you look at population density State to State, NY ranks 7th to Florida's 8th.
