01What the data says — and does not say
This page separates the checked GeoNames row for Oklahoma City—681,054, America/Chicago, 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: capital city of the U.S. state of Oklahoma and seat of Oklahoma County.
02This city's dataset fingerprint
The source row behind Oklahoma City is GeoNames ID 4544349. Its recorded administrative path is Oklahoma County → Oklahoma → United States, and GeoNames classifies the place as a first-order administrative seat. Oklahoma City 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.

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 4544349, the coordinate pair 35.4676 / 97.5164, country rank 26 of 43, and neighbor GeoNames 4691930 at 305.444 km bind Oklahoma City to a reproducible comparison. That combined key distinguishes the row; it is not a recommendation or evidence of a physical connection.
Oklahoma City's reference point is 35.4676° north and 97.5164° west. The IANA identifier America/Chicago is shared by 11 city rows in this catalog, while the GeoNames class PPLA is shared by 429 rows. Oklahoma City's row carries both second- and first-order administrative labels. Oklahoma City's point falls in the middle-latitude coordinate band used by this atlas's row checks. Oklahoma City's time-zone field defines the narrower catalog cohort; its place class is shared more broadly.

Together these fields form a reproducible identity check for this page, not a claim about walkability, climate or accessibility.
