The population of the western region depends on the specific area you are referring to. This region could include countries such as the United States, Canada, Australia, or countries in Europe. Each of these areas has its own population that contributes to the overall population of the western region.
Australia and Antarctica are the two continents with smaller land areas. Australia is the smallest continent, and Antarctica, despite being larger in size, has a smaller land area due to its thick ice covering.
urban areas
There are a lot of open spaces and most people live within an hour or so of the beaches or rural areas. The air is relatively clean. The lifestyle is relaxed and many outdoor activities are possible. The social welfare system is good compared with many other western nations.
because Australia has less people because its too hot and this means that in most areas not much food can grow. Australia is large but huge chunks of it are desert and in many areas the vast majority of the population lives on the coastline. Whereas in much of the rest of Asia there is intensive farming with monsoon rains allowing food to grow. Nevertheless there are areas of Asia that are sparsely populated, Siberia, Mongolia, the deserts of Western China, the Tibetan Plateau etc
About 80% of Western Europe lives in urban areas.
The majority of Australia's population lives along the east and south east coastal areas, with a few pockets like the south west of Western Australia. The vast majority of the Australian continent is arid to semi-arid, there is very little suface water, low rainfall and it will not support large urban populations.
Yes it is only found in some regions of Australia. Those areas are central and western Australia.
urban areas
The most drought-prone areas are the areas inland from the coast. Drought hits all areas of Australia (including the coast) but drought is more prevalent in inland Queensland, NSW, Victoria, Northern Territory and throughout South Australia and Western Australia. Even Tasmania can be subject to drought.
The population on Earth is distributed unevenly, with the majority concentrated in regions such as Asia, Africa, and Europe. Countries like China and India have the largest populations, while others like Australia and Greenland have much smaller populations. Urban areas tend to have higher population densities compared to rural areas.
It is estimated that between 85% and 88% of Australians live in urban areas.
