Notes and references
[edit]- ^ There are restrictions on the movement of labor between Hong Kong and Mainland China and the two areas are usually listed separately in other lists.
- ^ Includes large portions of the prefectures of Tokyo, Kanagawa, Chiba and Saitama; and small portions of Gunma, Tochigi and Ibaraki. Excludes urban areas of Utsunomiya (500,000; 88 km²) and Mito (500,000; 246 km²).
- ^ Various international sources limit their population estimates to DKI Jakarta itself (the national capital district). However, the urbanization of Jakarta extends into the regencies of Tangerang, Bekasi, Bogor and Karawang and the separate cities of Bekasi, Depok and Bogor. Demographia continues to use the "Jakarta" name instead of Jabodetabek because of its familiarity.
- ^ The population is higher than other agglomeration estimates (such as the United Nations), tend to be limited to Metro Manila, which is a province level jurisdiction. The continuous urbanization of Manila extends outward into Bulacan, Cavite, Laguna, Rizal and Quezon provinces. The Demographia population estimate is a "build-up" of municipality population within the continuously developed area (urban area or agglomeration).
- ^ Includes satellite cities in Gyeonggi Province such as Suwon, Goyang, Seongnam, Bucheon and Ansan which are treated as separate urban agglomerations by the United Nations.
- ^ Includes Nara and Himeji. United Nations estimates separate Osaka–Kobe and Kyoto and exclude both Nara and Himeji. Excludes urban area of Ōtsu (700,000; 389 km²).
- ^ a b c d e Hong Kong and Shenzhen are treated as separate urban areas because of the lack of freedom of labor movement without trade, immigration or customs barriers. Guangzhou–Foshan, Shenzhen and Dongguan are also treated as separate urban areas which constitute the Pearl River Delta economic zone. Likewise, urban areas of Jiangmen–Xinhui (600,000; 130 km²) and Taishan (350,000; 21 km²) within the prefecture-level city of Jiangmen, Huizhou–Huiyang (500,000; 93 km²) within the prefecture-level city of Huiyang, Zhuhai (530,000; 117 km²), Zhongshan (410,000; 130 km²) and Zhaoqing (310,000; 41 km²) as well as urban area of Macau (525,000; 23 km²) in are excluded. Population estimates for Shenzhen and Dongguan are based upon press reports, since the national census excludes millions of residents who do not have permanent resident status.
- ^ Includes Toyohashi.
- ^ The population is lower than other estimates (such as the United Nations), which include metropolitan area population not within the continuously developed urban area. The Demographia population estimate is a "build-up" of sub-municipality population within the continuously developed area (urban area or agglomeration). Excludes urban area of Tangshan (900,000; 168 km²).
- ^ The population is higher than other agglomeration estimates (such as the United Nations), which does not include all of the continuously developed urban area. Continuous urbanization extends well beyond the municipality of Kuala Lumpur, for example to Port Klang and the area represents a single labor market (metropolitan area). The Demographia population estimate is a "build-up" of municipality population within the continuously developed area (urban area or agglomeration).
- ^ Excludes urban area of Wanzhou (200,000; 16 km²) within the municipality of Chongqing. The direct-controlled municipality of Chongqing, which is sometimes translated as the direct-controlled city of Chongqing, has the largest population of any organism called a city in the stretches far beyond any reasonable definition of a metropolitan area and has a land area similar to that of Austria.
- ^ a b c d e Shanghai, Hangzhou, Suzhou, Nanjing, Wuxi and Changzhou are treated as separate urban areas which constitute the Yangtze River Delta economic zone. Urban areas of Ningbo (1,920,000; 570 km2), Cixi City (915,000; 259 km2) and Yuyao (370,000; 111 km2) within the prefecture-level city of Ningbo, Shaoxing (795,000; 254 km2) and Zhuji (400,000; 85 km2) within the prefecture-level city of Shaoxing, Jiaxing (750,000; 130 km2) and Tongxiang (510,000; 52 km2)within the prefecture-level city of Jiaxing, Kunshan (580,000; 401 km2) and Taicang (350,000; 91 km2) within the prefectrual level city of Suzhou, Wenling (510,000; 52 km2), Jiaojiang (375,000; 41 km2), Taizhou (300,000; 39 km2) and Huangyan (200,000; 34 km2) within the prefectrure-level city of Taizhou, Fuyang (370,000; 49 km2) within the prefecture-level city of Hangzhou, Nantong (735,000; 85 km2), Yangzhou (725,000; 49 km2), Huzhou (690,000; 111 km) and Zhenjiang (510,000; 36 km2) are also excluded.
