Saharanpur

Source identity and administrative path

The source row behind Saharanpur is GeoNames ID 1257806. Its recorded administrative path is District Saharanpur → Uttar Pradesh → India, and GeoNames classifies the place as a populated place.

Sahāranpur 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 2024-01-06; 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, Saharanpur ranks 1,182 by recorded population. Inside the 109 selected India entries it ranks 106; inside the 632 entries in its broad region it ranks 623.

Its 484,873 population value is 0.48 times the 1,001,694 median for the country cohort and 0.48 times the 1,008,426 regional median. Saharanpur sits in the lower half of this atlas's selected India entries.

Saharanpur'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.

Its point has higher latitude and lower longitude; it belongs to the same selected India cohort, uses the shared Asia/Kolkata identifier, and carries first-order administrative seat rather than populated place. Its recorded population is above Saharanpur's. Its nearest-neighbor distance ranks 511 of 1,206 from shortest to longest in the same snapshot. Saharanpur's nearest-coordinate gap sits in the second quarter 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 1257806, the coordinate pair 29.9679 / 77.5452, country rank 106 of 109, and neighbor GeoNames 1273313 at 61.48 km bind Saharanpur 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

Saharanpur's reference point is 29.9679° north and 77.5452° east. The IANA identifier Asia/Kolkata is shared by 109 city rows in this catalog, while the GeoNames class PPL is shared by 243 rows. Saharanpur's row carries both second- and first-order administrative labels.

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