What is the density of a black hole and are they all the same?

Do bigger black holes have the same density as small black holes but are just greater in volume?

A black hole is a state of matter where there is no intra-molecular force or pressure we know of that keeps matter from collapsing onto itself. The density that relativity predicts therefore would be infinite. Since no information can escape the event horizon (where the escape velocity is greater than the speed of light) there is no way to make observations of any density of matter within, we can only probe other aspects of the nature of matter to infer.
