Tangerang

Source identity and administrative path

The source row behind Tangerang is GeoNames ID 1625084. Its recorded administrative path is Kota Tangerang → Banten → Indonesia, and GeoNames classifies the place as a populated place.

Tangerang 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 2026-06-11; 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, Tangerang ranks 215 by recorded population. Inside the 29 selected Indonesia entries it ranks 7; inside the 632 entries in its broad region it ranks 128.

Its 1,927,815 population value is 1.65 times the 1,166,066 median for the country cohort and 1.91 times the 1,008,426 regional median. Tangerang falls between the leading tenth and quarter of this atlas's Indonesia population cohort.

Tangerang's recorded value is above the country-cohort median but remains below twice that benchmark. These comparisons describe this selected dataset only; they are not current census rankings or official urban-area boundaries.

Its point has lower latitude and higher longitude; it belongs to the same selected Indonesia cohort, uses the shared Asia/Jakarta identifier, and carries capital of a political entity rather than populated place. Its recorded population is above Tangerang's. Against Tangerang, Depok follows Kota Depok → West Java → Indonesia in the source.

Its recorded population is above Tangerang's. Its nearest-neighbor distance ranks 214 of 1,206 from shortest to longest in the same snapshot. Tangerang's nearest-coordinate gap falls between the tightest tenth and quarter of the atlas. 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 1625084, the coordinate pair 6.1781 / 106.6300, country rank 7 of 29, and neighbor GeoNames 8581443 at 15.669 km bind Tangerang 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

Tangerang's reference point is 6.1781° south and 106.6300° east. The IANA identifier Asia/Jakarta is shared by 23 city rows in this catalog, while the GeoNames class PPL is shared by 243 rows. Tangerang's row carries both second- and first-order administrative labels.

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