High density of population leads to more culture or maybe the perception of it. Now where is that culture perception data =)

That's a pretty silly thing to say, I am sure Monoco is a nice place to live, as are Singapore, old HK, and most others listed here. This is a measurement of ubanization more than anything, and really only shows outliers - small city-states with no rural territory.
Another cool similar graph would be average household size per country. Perhaps correlated to this one. It would seem intuitive that these would be related: higher pop densities would suggest more people per household. To find then any countries with high pop densities and a smaller number of people per household (or the converse) would be interesting. For example, a low pop density but a high household size would suggest a culture with a different definition of family perhaps. Or a country with inordinately expensive building materials.
I was gonna try to do it myself but couldn't figure out where to find the ave household size by country data.

Don't live in Monaco? Monaco's like the Cayman Islands, only French. It's a beautiful city state on the Mediterranean...

I think the Gaza Strip is the most densely populated place in the world. But it's more of a concentration camp than a country, so perhaps it doesn't count.

The top 5 are just city states - to compare them accurately would be to comapre them to NYC, MExico City and Caior rather than the U.S., Mexico and Egypt.
