This helps you to know how people are dispersed. You might have a large number in an area, but if they are dispersed evenly throughout, it won't seem as large.
Dispersion is the act of spreading people or things (like seeds) out over a large area. Measures of dispersion tell us the degree of variation of values in a sample or population.

They may be used-with considerable caution-when the measurements in the various populations being compared were made in different units. Dividing the dispersion estimates by the location estimates eliminates eliminates the differences attributable to differences in measuring units. However, caution is advised because the measurement methods may have differed in the various populations, giving rise to differences in the dispersion estimates having nothing to do with dispersion in the populations. In other words, there could well be differing levels of measurement error across populations.

Population dispersion is how a population is spread in an area.
Population density is the measurement of individuals living in a defined spacePopulation dispersion is how individuals of a population are spread in an area of a volume survivorship curve is the number of surviving members over time from a measured set of birthsthree patterns of dispersion are uniform, clumped, and random dispersion
The manner in which members of a population are arranged in a particular area is know as dispersion. There are three main kinds of dispersion, which are clumped dispersion, random dispersion, and uniform dispersion.
Statistical dispersion, a quantifiable variation of measurements of differing members of a population
population size, population density, and population dispersion
Population density shows how many people live in a given area. Dispersion shows where they live in that same are, whether clumped, uniform or randomly.

Populations that have clumped population dispersion rely on each other more than organisms that live in populations with uniform or random dispersion. This is because within these population clumps, organisms tend to operate most efficiently as a group, such as hunting in a pack, for example.
