Grenada Population Density
People per sq. km of land area EN.POP.DNST
Grenada's population density was 346.2 in 2025, ranked 32nd globally. This represents a 0.5% increase from 2024. Data from World Bank, covering 1961–2025.
Overview
Grenada's population density stood at 346.2 in 2025, a rise of +1.8 from 2023. Based on recent trends, this figure is projected to reach 346.2 by 2025. Grenada ranked 32nd globally.
Grenada’s population density has risen steadily over the 64‑year span from 280.40 persons per square kilometre in 1961 to an all‑time peak of 346.20 in 2025, placing the island at rank 32 globally according to World Bank data. The lowest point occurred in 1981 at 276.62, after which density increased by roughly 70 persons per square kilometre across four decades, reflecting limited land area combined with modest population growth. Grenada’s 2025 density is comparable to other small, high‑ranking territories such as Curaçao (342.06) and Japan (338.74), underscoring a common pattern among densely settled island economies. The upward trajectory suggests that, absent significant shifts in migration or fertility rates, Grenada will likely maintain a high density relative to regional peers, though targeted urban planning and land‑use policies could moderate future increases.
