City and Regional Planning QUESTION #5022
Question 1
In housing density calculation, if net residential area is 10 hectares with 500 dwelling units, the density is:
  • 25 DU/ha
  • 50 DU/ha✔️
  • 75 DU/ha
  • 100 DU/ha
Correct Answer Explanation
Net density = $\frac{\text{Total Dwelling Units}}{\text{Net Residential Area}} = \frac{500}{10} = 50$ dwelling units per hectare. Net density excludes public facilities, roads, and open spaces; gross density includes entire development area.
