There are 24x less people per square kilometre in Calgary than there is in Vancouver. How that sized is used depends on the person.

Your calculation is accurate, but that's assuming everyone has EXACTLY the same amount of space and uses so accordingly.
Doesn't a population density of 1360.2/km^2 mean there's 1360.2 people/km^2?

i.e. For each square kilometer, Calgary has 1360.2 people.

If we use your value, then the area of Calgary is 534759 km^2.
