Roma Province
Nearly all the residents of the province of Roma live
in the city of Rome ( Roma ) itself, though many of
the 121 towns in the Lazio Region are more like suburbs
of the city than autonomous towns in their own right.
The population density in Roma Province is the highest
in Italy because of the nearly four million people crammed
into a few thousand square miles.
The only towns that can be considered rural are those
in the very northern part of the province.
The city of Rome itself isn’t actually on the Tyrrhenian
Sea, but is relies upon port cities like Ostia and roads
that have been used for thousands of years to keep the
population to get goods to market in this “eternal
city” .
It is nearly impossible to walk anywhere in Rome without
coming face-to-face with art, culture and cuisine.
It is also famous for completely surrounding the separate
nation of The Vatican City and St. Peter’s Square.
