01What the data says — and does not say
This page separates the checked GeoNames row for Kryvyy Rih—603,904, Europe/Kyiv, 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 Kryvyy Rih is GeoNames ID 703845. Its recorded administrative path is Kryvyy Rih Raion → Dnipropetrovsk → Ukraine, and GeoNames classifies the place as a second-order administrative seat. Kryvyy Rih 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 2026-08-03; 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, Kryvyy Rih ranks 926 by recorded population. Inside the 9 selected Ukraine entries it ranks 8; inside the 125 entries in its broad region it ranks 81. Its 603,904 population value is 0.67 times the 901,645 median for the country cohort and 0.91 times the 664,046 regional median. Kryvyy Rih is rank 8 among the 9 selected Ukraine entries, so a percentage band would overstate this small cohort. Kryvyy Rih'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.

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 703845, the coordinate pair 47.9057 / 33.3940, country rank 8 of 9, and neighbor GeoNames 687700 at 128.644 km bind Kryvyy Rih to a reproducible comparison. That combined key distinguishes the row; it is not a recommendation or evidence of a physical connection.
Kryvyy Rih's reference point is 47.9057° north and 33.3940° east. The IANA identifier Europe/Kyiv is shared by 8 city rows in this catalog, while the GeoNames class PPLA2 is shared by 341 rows.

Kryvyy Rih's time-zone field defines the narrower catalog cohort; its place class is shared more broadly. GeoNames records Kryvyy Rih at 84 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.
