United Arab Emirates’s own list of its cities: the population of each city as Thomas Brinkhoff: City Population (citypopulation.de), from statistics centres of the emirates counts it (United Arab Emirates: Cities (estimate, 2015–2023 (dates vary by city)), 2015–2023 (dates vary by city)), the way the country ranks its cities. A city that is not one of the list’s cities of 10,000 people or more is left out. Metro area, urban centre and city proper rank the same cities by the worldwide measures instead, so they compare across borders.
