01What the data says — and does not say
This page separates the checked GeoNames row for Imus—481,949, Asia/Manila, 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.
02This city's dataset fingerprint
The source row behind Imus is GeoNames ID 1710914. Its recorded administrative path is Province of Cavite → Calabarzon → Philippines, and GeoNames classifies the place as a third-order administrative seat. Imus 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 2025-09-25; 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, Imus ranks 1,192 by recorded population. Inside the 22 selected Philippines entries it ranks 22; inside the 632 entries in its broad region it ranks 628. Its 481,949 population value is 0.60 times the 797,334 median for the country cohort and 0.48 times the 1,008,426 regional median. Imus sits in the lower half of this atlas's selected Philippines entries. Imus'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.

The closest-to-farthest distance spread is 7.237 km. Compared with Las Piñas, Imus's recorded population is 0.78 times as large. Against Imus, Las Piñas follows Southern Manila District → National Capital Region → Philippines in the source.

Its recorded population is above Imus's. Its nearest-neighbor distance ranks 65 of 1,206 from shortest to longest in the same snapshot. Imus's nearest-coordinate gap belongs to the tightest tenth of the atlas. 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 1710914, the coordinate pair 14.4297 / 120.9367, country rank 22 of 22, and neighbor GeoNames 1707174 at 5.479 km bind Imus to a reproducible comparison. That combined key distinguishes the row; it is not a recommendation or evidence of a physical connection.
Imus's reference point is 14.4297° north and 120.9367° east. The IANA identifier Asia/Manila is shared by 22 city rows in this catalog, while the GeoNames class PPLA3 is shared by 60 rows. Imus's row carries both second- and first-order administrative labels. Imus's point falls in the near-equatorial coordinate band used by this atlas's row checks. Imus's time-zone field defines the narrower catalog cohort; its place class is shared more broadly. GeoNames supplies no elevation for Imus, 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.
