01What the data says — and does not say
This page separates the checked GeoNames row for Khabarovsk—618,150, Asia/Vladivostok, 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.
Wikidata's localized description: city in Russia, administrative center of the Khabarovsk Krai.
02This city's dataset fingerprint
The source row behind Khabarovsk is GeoNames ID 2022890. Its recorded administrative path is Khabarovskiy Rayon → Khabarovsk → Russia, and GeoNames classifies the place as a first-order administrative seat. Khabarovsk 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 2026-04-14; 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, Khabarovsk ranks 903 by recorded population. Inside the 39 selected Russia entries it ranks 24; inside the 125 entries in its broad region it ranks 76. Its 618,150 population value is 0.95 times the 648,213 median for the country cohort and 0.93 times the 664,046 regional median. Khabarovsk sits in the lower half of this atlas's selected Russia entries. Khabarovsk'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.

The closest-to-farthest distance spread is 45.999 km. Compared with Shuangyashan, Khabarovsk's recorded population is 1.03 times as large. Against Khabarovsk, Shuangyashan follows Shuangyashan Shi → Heilongjiang → China in the source.

Its recorded population is below Khabarovsk's. Its nearest-neighbor distance ranks 1,146 of 1,206 from shortest to longest in the same snapshot. Khabarovsk'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 2022890, the coordinate pair 48.4620 / 135.0971, country rank 24 of 39, and neighbor GeoNames 2034786 at 357.504 km bind Khabarovsk to a reproducible comparison. That combined key distinguishes the row; it is not a recommendation or evidence of a physical connection.
Khabarovsk's reference point is 48.4620° north and 135.0971° east. The IANA identifier Asia/Vladivostok is shared by 2 city rows in this catalog, while the GeoNames class PPLA is shared by 429 rows. Khabarovsk's row carries both second- and first-order administrative labels. Khabarovsk's point falls in the middle-latitude coordinate band used by this atlas's row checks. Khabarovsk's time-zone field defines the narrower catalog cohort; its place class is shared more broadly. GeoNames supplies no elevation for Khabarovsk, 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.
