A dataset listing Illinois cities by population for 2024.

This data set includes cities in the United States, Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands. These cities were collected from the 1970 National Atlas of the United States. Where applicable, U.S. Census Bureau codes for named populated places were associated with each name to allow additional information to be attached. The Geographic Names Information System (GNIS) was also used as a source for additional information. This is a revised version of the December, 2003, data set.

This layer is sourced from maps.bts.dot.gov.

In 2023, the largest city in Czechia was its capital, Prague, with a population of more than 1.3 million. Together with Brno and Ostrava, these were the only three cities with more than 200,000 people.

Major cities demand dataset is modelled as raster-based travel time/cost analysis and weighted using the population/market size dimension as a measure of demand. Individual cumulative travel time/cost maps were produced for the country’s 10 largest cities (>200k habitants). The final market/demand layer consists of an arithmetic weighted sum of normalized (0-100) city accessibility grids. The following values were assumed for major cities population of Tanzania: City - Population - Weight % Dar es Salaam - 4,364,541 - 0.579 Mwanza - 706,453 - 0.094 Zanzibar - 501,459 - 0.067 Arusha - 416,442 - 0.055 Mbeya - 385,279 - 0.051 Morogoro - 305,840 - 0.041 Tanga - 221,127 - 0.029 Kigoma - 215,458 - 0.029 Dodoma - 213,636 - 0.028 Songea - 203,309 - 0.027 This 1km resolution raster dataset is part of FAO’s Hand-in-Hand Initiative, Geographical Information Systems - Multicriteria Decision Analysis (GIS-MCDA) aimed at the identification of value chain infrastructure sites (optimal location).

Accessibility to major cities dataset is modelled as raster-based travel time/cost analysis, computed for the 10 largest cities (>200k habitants) in the country, normalized from 0 to 100, where 0 corresponds to the lowest city accessibility. The following cities are included: City - Population Dar es Salaam - 4,364,541 Mwanza - 706,453 Zanzibar - 501,459 Arusha - 416,442 Mbeya - 385,279 Morogoro - 305,840 Tanga - 221,127 Kigoma - 215,458 Dodoma - 213,636 Songea - 203,309 This 1km resolution raster dataset is part of FAO’s Hand-in-Hand Initiative, Geographical Information Systems - Multicriteria Decision Analysis (GIS-MCDA) aimed at the identification of value chain infrastructure sites (or optimal location)

In 2023, around 3,640.56 violent crimes per 100,000 residents were reported in Oakland, California. This made Oakland the most dangerous city in the United States in that year. Four categories of violent crimes were used: murder and non-negligent manslaughter; forcible rape; robbery; and aggravated assault. Only cities with a population of at least 200,000 were considered.

At the 2021 Australian census, 278,043 people in New South Wales were Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander. New South Wales is Australia’s most populated state, also housing Australia’s largest city, Sydney. By comparison, Australia’s second largest state, Victoria, was home to around 66 thousand Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people.

Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples

There are around 800,000 Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people in Australia, which represents just over three percent of the Australian population. Indigenous people are often referred to as Australia's first people or the traditional custodians of the land in recognition of their ancestors inhabiting Australia more than 60,000 years ago. Australia's Indigenous peoples are represented by two distinct groups. Aboriginal people come from the Australian mainland. Torres Strait Islander people inhabit the group of Islands between the northern tip of Queensland and Papua New Guinea and represent less than 40,000 people.

Closing the gap

Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples experience significantly poorer health and wellbeing outcomes when compared to their non-Indigenous Australian counterparts. The average life expectancy of Indigenous Australians is around eight years shorter than that of the non-Indigenous population. In education, Indigenous Australians are also underrepresented, but attendance rates are improving and in 2019, full-time Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students numbered well over 200,000 people.
