Source identity and administrative path
The source row behind Dnipro is GeoNames ID 709930. Its recorded administrative path is Dnipro raion → Dnipropetrovsk → Ukraine, and GeoNames classifies the place as a first-order administrative seat. Dnipro 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 2026-07-02; 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, Dnipro ranks 575 by recorded population. Inside the 9 selected Ukraine entries it ranks 4; inside the 125 entries in its broad region it ranks 43. Its 968,502 population value is 1.07 times the 901,645 median for the country cohort and 1.46 times the 664,046 regional median. Dnipro is rank 4 among the 9 selected Ukraine entries, so a percentage band would overstate this small cohort. Dnipro'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.
Nearest-reference pattern
Dnipro's three nearest other atlas coordinates are Zaporizhzhya at 68.616 km with 710,052 recorded people; Kryvyy Rih at 137.079 km with 603,904 recorded people; Kharkiv at 190.145 km with 1,421,125 recorded people. The closest-to-farthest distance spread is 121.529 km. Compared with Zaporizhzhya, Dnipro's recorded population is 1.36 times as large. Against Dnipro, Zaporizhzhya follows Zaporizhzhya Raion → Zaporizhzhia → Ukraine in the source. Its point has lower latitude and higher longitude; it belongs to the same selected Ukraine cohort, uses the shared Europe/Kyiv identifier, and carries the same first-order administrative seat class. Its recorded population is below Dnipro's. Against Dnipro, Kryvyy Rih follows Kryvyy Rih Raion → Dnipropetrovsk → Ukraine in the source. Its point has lower latitude and lower longitude; it belongs to the same selected Ukraine cohort, uses the shared Europe/Kyiv identifier, and carries second-order administrative seat rather than first-order administrative seat. Its recorded population is below Dnipro's. Against Dnipro, Kharkiv follows Kharkiv Raion → Kharkiv → Ukraine in the source. Its point has higher latitude and higher longitude; it belongs to the same selected Ukraine cohort, uses the shared Europe/Kyiv identifier, and carries the same first-order administrative seat class. Its recorded population is above Dnipro's. Its nearest-neighbor distance ranks 549 of 1,206 from shortest to longest in the same snapshot. Dnipro'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 709930, the coordinate pair 48.4666 / 35.0407, country rank 4 of 9, and neighbor GeoNames 687700 at 68.616 km bind Dnipro 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
Dnipro's reference point is 48.4666° north and 35.0407° east. The IANA identifier Europe/Kyiv is shared by 8 city rows in this catalog, while the GeoNames class PPLA is shared by 429 rows. Dnipro's row carries both second- and first-order administrative labels. Dnipro's point falls in the middle-latitude coordinate band used by this atlas's row checks. Dnipro's time-zone field defines the narrower catalog cohort; its place class is shared more broadly. GeoNames records Dnipro at 120 metres above sea level, a single reference value rather than a description of slopes across the city. Together these fields form a reproducible identity check for this page, not a claim about walkability, climate or accessibility.
