01What the data says — and does not say
This page separates the checked GeoNames row for Ajegunle—550,000, Africa/Lagos, and source coordinates—from live travel claims. Those fields identify and compare the record; they do not prove current transport, accessibility, census totals, or a City Atlas Club visit.
02This city's dataset fingerprint
The source row behind Ajegunle is GeoNames ID 2566636. Its recorded administrative path is Ajeromi/Ifelodun → Lagos → Nigeria, and GeoNames classifies the place as a second-order administrative seat. Ajegunle occurs once as a primary city label in this atlas sample; the numeric ID remains the durable source key if names change. The city row itself was updated 2024-04-16; that date belongs to the source record, not to every transport or visitor detail in the real destination.
Within the fixed 1,206-record atlas, Ajegunle ranks 1,013 by recorded population. Inside the 30 selected Nigeria entries it ranks 26; inside the 243 entries in its broad region it ranks 212. Its 550,000 population value is 0.59 times the 930,000 median for the country cohort and 0.61 times the 902,588 regional median. Ajegunle sits in the lower half of this atlas's selected Nigeria entries. Ajegunle's recorded value is materially below the country-cohort median used here. These comparisons describe this selected dataset only; they are not current census rankings or official urban-area boundaries.

The closest-to-farthest distance spread is 16.958 km. Compared with Lagos, Ajegunle's recorded population is 0.04 times as large. Against Ajegunle, Lagos follows Lagos → Nigeria in the source.

Its recorded population is above Ajegunle's. Against Ajegunle, Agege follows Agege → Lagos → Nigeria in the source. Its point has higher latitude and higher longitude; it belongs to the same selected Nigeria cohort, uses the shared Africa/Lagos identifier, and carries the same second-order administrative seat class. Its recorded population is above Ajegunle's. Against Ajegunle, Ebute Ikorodu follows Ikorodu → Lagos → Nigeria in the source.

Its recorded population is below Ajegunle's. Its nearest-neighbor distance ranks 102 of 1,206 from shortest to longest in the same snapshot. Ajegunle's nearest-coordinate gap belongs to the tightest tenth of the atlas. This pattern can reveal whether other catalog references are geographically close, but it cannot establish whether a border crossing is possible or practical, or whether rail, road, fare, or journey-time connections exist. Read as one record signature, GeoNames 2566636, the coordinate pair 6.4520 / 3.3312, country rank 26 of 30, and neighbor GeoNames 2332459 at 7.022 km bind Ajegunle to a reproducible comparison. That combined key distinguishes the row; it is not a recommendation or evidence of a physical connection.
Ajegunle's reference point is 6.4520° north and 3.3312° east. The IANA identifier Africa/Lagos is shared by 30 city rows in this catalog, while the GeoNames class PPLA2 is shared by 341 rows. Ajegunle's row carries both second- and first-order administrative labels. Ajegunle's point falls in the near-equatorial coordinate band used by this atlas's row checks. Ajegunle's time-zone field defines the narrower catalog cohort; its place class is shared more broadly. GeoNames supplies no elevation for Ajegunle, so the profile preserves that missing value instead of guessing terrain. Together these fields form a reproducible identity check for this page, not a claim about walkability, climate or accessibility.
