Source identity and administrative path
The source row behind Córdoba is GeoNames ID 3860259. Its recorded administrative path is Departamento de Capital → Cordoba → Argentina, and GeoNames classifies the place as a first-order administrative seat. Córdoba 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 2026-04-13; 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, Córdoba ranks 193 by recorded population. Inside the 6 selected Argentina entries it ranks 2; inside the 198 entries in its broad region it ranks 26. Its 2,106,734 population value is 2.73 times the 770,825 median for the country cohort and 2.58 times the 816,326 regional median. Córdoba is rank 2 among the 6 selected Argentina entries, so a percentage band would overstate this small cohort. Córdoba's recorded value reaches at least twice the country-cohort median in this snapshot. These comparisons describe this selected dataset only; they are not current census rankings or official urban-area boundaries.
Nearest-reference pattern
Córdoba's three nearest other atlas coordinates are Rosario at 375.358 km with 948,312 recorded people; San Miguel de Tucumán at 519.993 km with 548,866 recorded people; Puente Alto at 647.032 km with 568,106 recorded people. The closest-to-farthest distance spread is 271.674 km. Compared with Rosario, Córdoba's recorded population is 2.22 times as large. Against Córdoba, Rosario follows Rosario Department → Santa Fe → Argentina in the source. Its point has lower latitude and higher longitude; it belongs to the same selected Argentina cohort, uses the shared America/Argentina/Cordoba identifier, and carries second-order administrative seat rather than first-order administrative seat. Its recorded population is below Córdoba's. Against Córdoba, San Miguel de Tucumán follows Departamento de Capital → Tucuman → Argentina in the source. Its point has higher latitude and lower longitude; it belongs to the same selected Argentina cohort, uses America/Argentina/Tucuman instead of America/Argentina/Cordoba, and carries the same first-order administrative seat class. Its recorded population is below Córdoba's. Against Córdoba, Puente Alto follows Provincia de Cordillera → Santiago Metropolitan → Chile in the source. Its point has lower latitude and lower longitude; it belongs to the selected Chile cohort rather than Argentina, uses America/Santiago instead of America/Argentina/Cordoba, and carries second-order administrative seat rather than first-order administrative seat. Its recorded population is below Córdoba's. Its nearest-neighbor distance ranks 1,161 of 1,206 from shortest to longest in the same snapshot. Córdoba'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 3860259, the coordinate pair 31.4065 / 64.1885, country rank 2 of 6, and neighbor GeoNames 3838583 at 375.358 km bind Córdoba 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
Córdoba's reference point is 31.4065° south and 64.1885° west. The IANA identifier America/Argentina/Cordoba is shared by 2 city rows in this catalog, while the GeoNames class PPLA is shared by 429 rows. Córdoba's row carries both second- and first-order administrative labels. Córdoba's point falls in the middle-latitude coordinate band used by this atlas's row checks. Córdoba's time-zone field defines the narrower catalog cohort; its place class is shared more broadly. GeoNames supplies no elevation for Córdoba, 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.
