Source identity and administrative path
The source row behind Tlalnepantla is GeoNames ID 3515431. Its recorded administrative path is Tlalnepantla de Baz → Mexico, and GeoNames classifies the place as a populated place. Tlalnepantla 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 2024-01-02; 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, Tlalnepantla ranks 850 by recorded population. Inside the 39 selected Mexico entries it ranks 28; inside the 198 entries in its broad region it ranks 134. Its 653,410 population value is 0.81 times the 808,416 median for the country cohort and 0.80 times the 816,326 regional median. Tlalnepantla sits in the lower half of this atlas's selected Mexico entries. Tlalnepantla'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
Tlalnepantla's three nearest other atlas coordinates are Ciudad López Mateos at 6.731 km with 489,160 recorded people; Naucalpan de Juárez at 8.267 km with 834,434 recorded people; Gustavo Adolfo Madero at 10.246 km with 1,185,772 recorded people. The closest-to-farthest distance spread is 3.515 km. Compared with Ciudad López Mateos, Tlalnepantla's recorded population is 1.34 times as large. Against Tlalnepantla, Ciudad López Mateos follows Atizapan de Zaragoza → Mexico in the source. Its point has higher latitude and lower longitude; it belongs to the same selected Mexico cohort, uses the shared America/Mexico_City identifier, and carries second-order administrative seat rather than populated place. Its recorded population is below Tlalnepantla's. Against Tlalnepantla, Naucalpan de Juárez follows Naucalpan de Juarez → Mexico in the source. Its point has lower latitude and lower longitude; it belongs to the same selected Mexico cohort, uses the shared America/Mexico_City identifier, and carries second-order administrative seat rather than populated place. Its recorded population is above Tlalnepantla's. Against Tlalnepantla, Gustavo Adolfo Madero follows Gustavo A. Madero → Mexico City → Mexico in the source. Its point has lower latitude and higher longitude; it belongs to the same selected Mexico cohort, uses the shared America/Mexico_City identifier, and carries the same populated place class. Its recorded population is above Tlalnepantla's. Its nearest-neighbor distance ranks 95 of 1,206 from shortest to longest in the same snapshot. Tlalnepantla's nearest-coordinate gap belongs to the tightest tenth 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 3515431, the coordinate pair 19.5401 / 99.1954, country rank 28 of 39, and neighbor GeoNames 3532624 at 6.731 km bind Tlalnepantla 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
Tlalnepantla's reference point is 19.5401° north and 99.1954° west. The IANA identifier America/Mexico_City is shared by 22 city rows in this catalog, while the GeoNames class PPL is shared by 243 rows. Tlalnepantla's row carries both second- and first-order administrative labels. Tlalnepantla's point falls in the lower-latitude coordinate band used by this atlas's row checks. Tlalnepantla's time-zone field defines the narrower catalog cohort; its place class is shared more broadly. GeoNames supplies no elevation for Tlalnepantla, 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.
