Place guide
Ishigaki Island is separated from the wider administrative territory of Ishigaki City. The population figure is registered Japanese nationals and does not include foreign residents.
The outline and area represent Ishigaki Island. Using Ishigaki City’s full territory would add remote islands that are absent from this shape.
Keeping those objects separate prevents a visually convincing but internally inconsistent comparison.
Foreign residents are excluded from the current island-level population source. The displayed density follows that narrower numerator.
The figure remains useful for scale, but it should not be described as everyone living on Ishigaki.
