01What the data says — and does not say
This page separates the checked GeoNames row for Angeles City—483,452, Asia/Manila, 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 Angeles City is GeoNames ID 1730737. Its recorded administrative path is Province of Pampanga → Central Luzon → Philippines, and GeoNames classifies the place as a populated place. Angeles City 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 2025-11-02; 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, Angeles City ranks 1,186 by recorded population. Inside the 22 selected Philippines entries it ranks 21; inside the 632 entries in its broad region it ranks 626.

Angeles City's nearest-coordinate gap sits in the second quarter of atlas distances. 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 1730737, the coordinate pair 15.1500 / 120.5833, country rank 21 of 22, and neighbor GeoNames 1680102 at 64.811 km bind Angeles City to a reproducible comparison. That combined key distinguishes the row; it is not a recommendation or evidence of a physical connection.
Angeles City's reference point is 15.1500° north and 120.5833° east. The IANA identifier Asia/Manila is shared by 22 city rows in this catalog, while the GeoNames class PPL is shared by 243 rows. Angeles City's row carries both second- and first-order administrative labels. Angeles City's point falls in the lower-latitude coordinate band used by this atlas's row checks. Angeles City's time-zone field defines the narrower catalog cohort; its place class is shared more broadly. GeoNames supplies no elevation for Angeles City, 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.
