India and China Less Crowded as Compared to Britain

Statistics show that Britain is much more crowded than India and China.
According to the Overpopulation Index, England is the most crowded country in Europe and the fourth most crowded in the world.

Singapore, Israel and Kuwait occupy the first three positions, while the UK is ranked 17th in the list of 130 countries.

Sir Andrew Green, of MigrationWatch UK, said: "It's obvious to everyone that England, particularly the South-east, is heavily overcrowded.

"According to official figures two-thirds of population growth in the next 20 years will be as a result of immigration. Such an increase in our population will put even further pressure on our public services such as housing, schools and hospitals."

According to the Daily Express, the Overpopulation Index is thought to be the first study to rank countries according to the "sustainability" of their populations and how dependent they are on other nations for resources.



SHORT-SUMMARY:
This article is a simple comparison of rates of immigration for different foreign countries, excluding the United States. It discusses how a strong economy can cause over crowding because emigration (from these countries) is weak, but immigration (into these countries) is strong. It also dispels a few commonly held notions, like China and India being notoriously over crowded because they have such high population figures, where really countries like England and Singapore have worse per capita crowding.
