01What the data says — and does not say
This page separates the checked GeoNames row for Al Mansurah—621,953, Africa/Cairo, 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 Al Mansurah is GeoNames ID 360761. Its recorded administrative path is Dakahlia → Egypt, and GeoNames classifies the place as a first-order administrative seat. Al Mansurah 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 2023-11-29; 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, Al Mansurah ranks 897 by recorded population. Inside the 12 selected Egypt entries it ranks 7; inside the 243 entries in its broad region it ranks 184. Its 621,953 population value is 0.94 times the 660,747 median for the country cohort and 0.69 times the 902,588 regional median. Al Mansurah sits in the lower half of this atlas's selected Egypt entries. Al Mansurah's recorded value stays within one quarter of the country-cohort median used here. These comparisons describe this selected dataset only; they are not current census rankings or official urban-area boundaries.

Al Mansurah's nearest-coordinate gap falls between the tightest tenth and quarter 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 360761, the coordinate pair 31.0364 / 31.3807, country rank 7 of 12, and neighbor GeoNames 360829 at 21.648 km bind Al Mansurah to a reproducible comparison. That combined key distinguishes the row; it is not a recommendation or evidence of a physical connection.
Al Mansurah's reference point is 31.0364° north and 31.3807° east. The IANA identifier Africa/Cairo is shared by 12 city rows in this catalog, while the GeoNames class PPLA is shared by 429 rows. Al Mansurah's row carries a first-order administrative label but no second-order label. Al Mansurah's point falls in the middle-latitude coordinate band used by this atlas's row checks. Al Mansurah's time-zone field defines the narrower catalog cohort; its place class is shared more broadly. GeoNames supplies no elevation for Al Mansurah, 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.
