What the data says — and does not say

This page separates the checked GeoNames row for Gujrat—574,240, Asia/Karachi, 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.

Source identity and administrative path

The source row behind Gujrat is GeoNames ID 1177654. Its recorded administrative path is Gujrat District → Punjab → Pakistan, and GeoNames classifies the place as a second-order administrative seat. Gujrat 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 2025-05-08; 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, Gujrat ranks 972 by recorded population. Inside the 31 selected Pakistan entries it ranks 22; inside the 632 entries in its broad region it ranks 524. Its 574,240 population value is 0.79 times the 725,000 median for the country cohort and 0.57 times the 1,008,426 regional median. Gujrat sits in the lower half of this atlas's selected Pakistan entries. Gujrat'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

Gujrat's three nearest other atlas coordinates are Sialkot at 43.691 km with 911,817 recorded people; Gujranwala at 47.705 km with 2,511,118 recorded people; Jammu at 75.756 km with 576,198 recorded people. The closest-to-farthest distance spread is 32.065 km. Compared with Sialkot, Gujrat's recorded population is 0.63 times as large. Against Gujrat, Sialkot follows Sialkot → Punjab → Pakistan in the source. Its point has lower latitude and higher longitude; it belongs to the same selected Pakistan cohort, uses the shared Asia/Karachi identifier, and carries the same second-order administrative seat class. Its recorded population is above Gujrat's. Against Gujrat, Gujranwala follows Gujranwala District → Punjab → Pakistan in the source. Its point has lower latitude and higher longitude; it belongs to the same selected Pakistan cohort, uses the shared Asia/Karachi identifier, and carries the same second-order administrative seat class. Its recorded population is above Gujrat's. Against Gujrat, Jammu follows Jammu → Jammu and Kashmir → India in the source. Its point has higher latitude and higher longitude; it belongs to the selected India cohort rather than Pakistan, uses Asia/Kolkata instead of Asia/Karachi, and carries first-order administrative seat rather than second-order administrative seat. Its recorded population is above Gujrat's. Its nearest-neighbor distance ranks 389 of 1,206 from shortest to longest in the same snapshot. Gujrat'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 1177654, the coordinate pair 32.5742 / 74.0754, country rank 22 of 31, and neighbor GeoNames 1164909 at 43.691 km bind Gujrat 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

Gujrat's reference point is 32.5742° north and 74.0754° east. The IANA identifier Asia/Karachi is shared by 31 city rows in this catalog, while the GeoNames class PPLA2 is shared by 341 rows. Gujrat's row carries both second- and first-order administrative labels. Gujrat's point falls in the middle-latitude coordinate band used by this atlas's row checks. Gujrat's time-zone field defines the narrower catalog cohort; its place class is shared more broadly. GeoNames supplies no elevation for Gujrat, 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.
