Population density?[edit]

The population density figure is startling, surpassing that of Manhattan. As a city planninng student and resident of Berkeley, I find it doubtful. I understand that your number estimate comes from the census, but as Southside is not neatly defined by any census geographic area, there must have been some other type of analysis to produce that figure. I would further guess that the analysis was flawed.169.229.138.16 (talk) 21:58, 18 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I agree that it is a startling number, but I think when you consider the area being covered, it is a reasonable estimate. The area mentioned, roughly Bancroft to Dwight, Fulton to Panoramic, is only about 1/6th sq. mi., which with this density amounts to about 5000 people living in the neighborhood. As a resident of the neighborhood, this sounds pretty reasonable. As a side note, most of Manhattan is 3-4 floor single homes, only a few portions of it are covered with high rise buildings, but this is the image that comes to mind nonetheless; thus comparing the density to Manhattan can be misleading at best.169.229.69.157 (talk) 07:31, 7 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Additions by User:Rona roti[edit]

I removed the recent addition because it grossly misinterpreted this source multiple times, while the part about Greek life people not knowing basic life skills was inaccurate and completely unsourced.--Jasper Deng (talk) 16:31, 12 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
