Analysis
Turkmenistan recorded 21.17 people per km² for population density in 2100.
Compared with earlier readings it is down 0.3% on the previous year and down 2.3% over ten years.
Over the whole period, population density in Turkmenistan peaked at 21.88 people per km² in 2079 and was at its lowest, 0.3618 people per km², in 1000.
That places Turkmenistan 202nd out of 235 countries with data for 2100, putting it in the bottom quarter.
The series is highly variable year to year, so single readings are best treated with caution.
