Source identity and administrative path
The source row behind Barcelona (Venezuela) is GeoNames ID 3648559. Its recorded administrative path is Municipio Simon Bolivar → Anzoategui → Venezuela, and GeoNames classifies the place as a first-order administrative seat. Barcelona appears on 2 separate GeoNames rows in this atlas, so the qualifier “Venezuela” and numeric ID prevent those places from being merged. The city row itself was updated 2026-04-14; that date belongs to the source record, not to every transport or visitor detail in the real destination.
Population position inside fixed cohorts
Within the fixed 1,206-record atlas, Barcelona (Venezuela) ranks 684 by recorded population. Inside the 7 selected Venezuela entries it ranks 6; inside the 198 entries in its broad region it ranks 100. Its 815,141 population value is 0.66 times the 1,240,714 median for the country cohort and 1.00 times the 816,326 regional median. Barcelona (Venezuela) is rank 6 among the 7 selected Venezuela entries, so a percentage band would overstate this small cohort. Barcelona (Venezuela)'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.

Barcelona (Venezuela)'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 3648559, the coordinate pair 10.1384 / 64.6877, country rank 6 of 7, and neighbor GeoNames 3778045 at 170.464 km bind Barcelona (Venezuela) to a reproducible comparison. That combined key distinguishes the row; it is not a recommendation or evidence of a physical connection.
Coordinate, time-zone and class cohorts
Barcelona (Venezuela)'s reference point is 10.1384° north and 64.6877° west. The IANA identifier America/Caracas is shared by 7 city rows in this catalog, while the GeoNames class PPLA is shared by 429 rows. Barcelona (Venezuela)'s row carries both second- and first-order administrative labels. Barcelona (Venezuela)'s point falls in the near-equatorial coordinate band used by this atlas's row checks. Barcelona (Venezuela)'s time-zone field defines the narrower catalog cohort; its place class is shared more broadly. GeoNames supplies no elevation for Barcelona (Venezuela), 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.
