Serifos and
Sifnos just below
Kithnos, 2 not overly populated islands, 1,400 and 2,600 respectively. They both have mining in their histories, Serifos in Iron-Ore and Sifnos in gold, silver and lead, making them very wealthy in ancient times, it has been inhabited since 4,000 BC. But the metals ran out on both Islands so making a living on them has resorted to tourism and agriculture.
