Social Density

Social density refers to the number of people within a specific area and how closely they are spaced or interact. It considers not just the physical number of individuals but also how their presence affects social dynamics, such as communication, privacy, and activity levels. High social density means many people in a compact space, which can lead to increased interactions but also potential crowding or noise. Low social density involves fewer people spread out over a larger area, allowing more personal space and quieter environments. Understanding social density helps in designing spaces that balance comfort, safety, and social engagement.
