This is an India's Population Density of 2001 Map. The legend is good. It clearly shows what each color means. The map inset emphasizes how dense Delhi is in terms of persons per square km.
For the color, I think it would be better if the cartographer used monochromatic because this type of color gradient gives smooth color transition and would help the map reader compare the density of areas without looking at the legend.
For the label, it would be better if the color of labels are black. Because there is a color green on this density map, labels would be easier to be read if they are darker.
Spacing is not evenly distributed. I noticed that the space between the title and the island is so small. Overall, this map deserves a rating of 7.
*Ratings: 1-lowest 10-highest
