💡 A Note on Chinese City Data
Please note the following regarding Chinese city data:
-
Administrative Area vs. City Proper: In China, a «city» name often refers to a vast administrative area that includes the urban core, satellite cities, towns, and large rural areas. For example, Chongqing has an administrative population of over 32 million people, but this figure includes many residents living in rural areas across a large territory.
-
Data Sources: This list is compiled from multiple sources with varying publication dates. Population figures and city rankings may change over time. For the most precise and up-to-date statistical data, it is recommended to refer to official sources such as the National Bureau of Statistics of China.
I hope this list is helpful for you. If you are interested in specific cities or need more detailed information about any of them, feel free to ask!
