Colombia’s own list of its cities: the population of each municipality as DANE (Departamento Administrativo Nacional de Estadística) counts it (Proyecciones de Población y Estudios Demográficos (PPED): Municipal, proyecciones de población por área geográfica 2018-2042, year 2026, 30 June 2026), the way the country ranks its cities. A city that is not one of the list’s municipalities 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. One per group: the largest city of each department by this measure, then ranked together.
