  1. This North American density figure is based on a total land area of 23,090,542 sq km only, considerably less than the total combined land and water area of 24,709,000 sq km.
  2. List based on 2005 figures in Table A.12, World Urbanization Prospects: The 2005 Revision, Department of Economic and Social Affairs, Population Division, United Nations. Accessed on line 1 Enero 2008.
  3. 3.0 3.1 3.2 3.3 Depending on definitions, Aruba, Netherlands Antilles, Panama, and Trinidad and Tobago have territory in one or both of North and South America.
  4. 4.0 4.1 4.2 4.3 4.4 4.5 4.6 Water area makes up a considerable portion of this entity's total area. Therefore, for a more accurate figure on which to calculate population density, this figure includes land area only.
  5. 5.0 5.1 5.2 5.3 Estimates as of Hulyo 2006. Since Guadeloupe and Martinique have been upgraded from overseas departments to regions of France, they are no longer listed separately in The World Factbook. Therefore, these figures are from the last edition in which they appear -- 2006 Naka-arkibo 2012-12-05 at Archive.is.
  6. Due to ongoing activity of the Soufriere Hills volcano beginning in Hulyo 1995, much of Plymouth's de jure capital was destroyed and government offices were relocated to Brades.
  7. Panama is generally considered a North American country, though some authorities divide it at the Panama Canal; land area and population figures are for the entire country.
  8. Includes the U.S. state of Hawaii, which is distant from the North American landmass in the Pacific Ocean and is, thus, commonly included with the other territories of Oceania.
