01What the data says — and does not say
This page separates the checked GeoNames row for Bandar Lampung—1,166,066, Asia/Jakarta, 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.
Wikidata's localized description: city in Lampung Province, Indonesia.
02This city's dataset fingerprint
The source row behind Bandar Lampung is GeoNames ID 1624917. Its recorded administrative path is Kota Bandar Lampung → Lampung → Indonesia, and GeoNames classifies the place as a first-order administrative seat. Bandar Lampung 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 2022-12-30; 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, Bandar Lampung ranks 461 by recorded population. Inside the 29 selected Indonesia entries it ranks 15; inside the 632 entries in its broad region it ranks 270. Its 1,166,066 population value is 1.00 times the 1,166,066 median for the country cohort and 1.16 times the 1,008,426 regional median. Bandar Lampung sits in the second quarter of this atlas's Indonesia population cohort. Bandar Lampung'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.

Its recorded population is above Bandar Lampung's. Its nearest-neighbor distance ranks 796 of 1,206 from shortest to longest in the same snapshot. Bandar Lampung's nearest-coordinate gap belongs to the wider half 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 1624917, the coordinate pair 5.4292 / 105.2611, country rank 15 of 29, and neighbor GeoNames 1627549 at 124.827 km bind Bandar Lampung to a reproducible comparison. That combined key distinguishes the row; it is not a recommendation or evidence of a physical connection.
Bandar Lampung's reference point is 5.4292° south and 105.2611° east. The IANA identifier Asia/Jakarta is shared by 23 city rows in this catalog, while the GeoNames class PPLA is shared by 429 rows. Bandar Lampung's row carries both second- and first-order administrative labels. Bandar Lampung's point falls in the near-equatorial coordinate band used by this atlas's row checks. Bandar Lampung's time-zone field defines the narrower catalog cohort; its place class is shared more broadly. GeoNames supplies no elevation for Bandar Lampung, 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.
