Population Density in Côte d'Ivoire from 1990 to 2021

Côte d'Ivoire's population density has shown steady growth from 1990 to 2021, driven by population increases and urbanization. In 1990, the density was 37 people per square kilometer and consistently rose throughout the years. By 2000, it reached 53 people per sq. km, reflecting ongoing demographic changes.
