In microeconomics, a threshold population is the minimum number of people needed for a service to be worthwhile.
In geography, a threshold population is the minimum number of people necessary before a particular good or service can be provided in an area. The concept is equivalent to the "range" in central place theory and retailing, which delineates the market area of a central place for a particular good or service, and is dependent on the spatial distribution of population and the willingness of consumers to travel a given distance to purchase particular goods or services.

Dense population is when a lot of people live in a very small area. Population density can change greatly in different areas of the world.
