What is the difference between a red giant and a neutron star?

A red giant is a star in the final stages of its life time that has expanded to hundreds of times its original diameter. Because the star has expanded without gaining mass, a reg giant has an extremely low average density. A neutron star is the collapsed core of a dead massive star. It contains a mass a few times that of the sun in an area only a few miles across, making it extremely dense; only the singularity of a black hole is denser.
