      I added a population map, there are still a few outliers

      • South England has a lot of tennis courts for the population
      • Same for West of France
      • East Germany has a high population but no court
      • Mallorca is a tourist hotspot

        South England has a lot of tennis courts for the population

        Is it? Isn’t it the most densely populated area in Europe?

          Very interesting question, I had to do some research to find out (especially since the Brexit and UK is not included in Eurostat data anymore)

          If we look at NL vs England

          • NL has a density of 424 hab/km² (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_and_dependencies_by_population_density)
          • England has 434 hab/km² (https://www.ons.gov.uk/peoplepopulationandcommunity/populationandmigration/populationestimates/bulletins/annualmidyearpopulationestimates/mid2021#population-change-for-uk-countries)
          • (the UK as a whole has 279)

          This map shows the difference, in the NL it’s more spread while in England it’s focused on the big cities

          This interactive map also shows the data: http://www.luminocity3d.org/WorldPopDen/#8/51.856/3.705

            This has more useful insight than the wrong-data tennis-court trivia! I had no idea England was denser than the Netherlands.
