Rangpur

Source identity and administrative path

The source row behind Rangpur is GeoNames ID 1185188. Its recorded administrative path is Rangpur → Rangpur Division → Bangladesh, and GeoNames classifies the place as a first-order administrative seat.

Rangpur 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 2026-04-13; 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, Rangpur ranks 525 by recorded population. Inside the 10 selected Bangladesh entries it ranks 5; inside the 632 entries in its broad region it ranks 305.

Its 1,031,388 population value is 1.15 times the 897,484 median for the country cohort and 1.02 times the 1,008,426 regional median. Rangpur sits in the second quarter of this atlas's Bangladesh population cohort.

Rangpur'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

Rangpur's three nearest other atlas coordinates are Mohammadpur at 119.078 km with 527,571 recorded people; Siliguri at 134.97 km with 515,574 recorded people; Rajshahi at 166.1 km with 763,580 recorded people. The closest-to-farthest distance spread is 47.022 km. Compared with Mohammadpur, Rangpur's recorded population is 1.95 times as large. Against Rangpur, Mohammadpur follows Naogaon → Rajshahi Division → Bangladesh in the source. Its point has lower latitude and lower longitude; it belongs to the same selected Bangladesh cohort, uses the shared Asia/Dhaka identifier, and carries populated place rather than first-order administrative seat.

Its recorded population is below Rangpur's. Against Rangpur, Siliguri follows Darjeeling → West Bengal → India in the source. Its point has higher latitude and lower longitude; it belongs to the selected India cohort rather than Bangladesh, uses Asia/Kolkata instead of Asia/Dhaka, and carries populated place rather than first-order administrative seat. Its recorded population is below Rangpur's. Against Rangpur, Rajshahi follows Rajshahi → Rajshahi Division → Bangladesh in the source.

Its point has lower latitude and lower longitude; it belongs to the same selected Bangladesh cohort, uses the shared Asia/Dhaka identifier, and carries the same first-order administrative seat class. Its recorded population is below Rangpur's. Its nearest-neighbor distance ranks 770 of 1,206 from shortest to longest in the same snapshot. Rangpur'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 1185188, the coordinate pair 25.7466 / 89.2517, country rank 5 of 10, and neighbor GeoNames 1194041 at 119.078 km bind Rangpur 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

Rangpur's reference point is 25.7466° north and 89.2517° east. The IANA identifier Asia/Dhaka is shared by 10 city rows in this catalog, while the GeoNames class PPLA is shared by 429 rows. Rangpur's row carries both second- and first-order administrative labels.

Rangpur's point falls in the lower-latitude coordinate band used by this atlas's row checks. Rangpur's time-zone field defines the narrower catalog cohort; its place class is shared more broadly. GeoNames supplies no elevation for Rangpur, 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.
