In 2014, the population of Hong Kong was estimated to be approximately 7,112,688 people. The city covers an area of approximately 426.25 square miles.

The number of people = 7,112,688

City area = 426.25 square miles

The population density =
(Number of people)/(City area)

=
(7112688)/(426.25)

= 16686.65806 people per square mile

The population density of Hong Kong in 2014 is 16687.
