List cities by population

Methodology

This list is limited to the territorial Subdivision S which are clearly identified at cities. It thus does not include/understand a Agglomération or of urban Aire, which can include several juridically distinct cities.

Certain countries do not define any subdivision of this type. Other countries have local subdivisions without it being possible to determine without ambiguity if they are cities or not, such as for example the Kommune R of Norway. In both cases, no town of these countries is included in the list below.
