131 people in 22,000 square feet of land. Wow.

I just read a few articles about it and that was at the last census. More recent estimates run from 500-1000.

I don't know if I can believe those numbers, though. Doesn't seem possible.

I’d hop in one of those boats and paddle until I was as far away from that shithole as possible. I can’t imagine how disgusting that place is

I bet there are numerous places in India and Mexico with that many people in half the space.

lol there's two other bigger islands right next to that one, but no one wants to live on those because they are haunted by "evil spirits"

Idiots.

If you watched far enough it's because of the security and it's not as steep as the other islands.

Perspective of the photo and water makes you freak out. Overhead, that’s not an more jammed than any other inner city

Likely all of then because they probably don't know how to swim.

So my honeymoon comes down to either Bora Bora or Migingo Island. I know a little part of me will always wish I had chosen the other one no matter which one I pick.
