Analysis
In 2100, population density in Guatemala stood at 241.81 people per km².
Compared with earlier readings it is down 0.3% on the previous year and down 2.9% over ten years.
Over the whole period, population density in Guatemala peaked at 253.4 people per km² in 2077 and was at its lowest, 4.32 people per km², in 1800.
That places Guatemala 64th out of 235 countries with data for 2100, putting it in the middle of the range.
The series is highly variable year to year, so single readings are best treated with caution.
