01What the data says — and does not say

Wikidata's localized description: municipal seat of Tlaquepaque, State of Jalisco, Mexico.
02This city's dataset fingerprint
The source row behind Tlaquepaque is GeoNames ID 3981461. Its recorded administrative path is San Pedro Tlaquepaque → Jalisco → Mexico, and GeoNames classifies the place as a second-order administrative seat. Tlaquepaque 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 2025-07-31; that date belongs to the source record, not to every transport or visitor detail in the real destination.
Within the fixed 1,206-record atlas, Tlaquepaque ranks 853 by recorded population. Inside the 39 selected Mexico entries it ranks 29; inside the 198 entries in its broad region it ranks 136.

Tlaquepaque sits in the lower half of this atlas's selected Mexico entries. Tlaquepaque's recorded value stays within one quarter of the country-cohort median used here.

Tlaquepaque'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 3981461, the coordinate pair 20.6412 / 103.2934, country rank 29 of 39, and neighbor GeoNames 4005539 at 6.916 km bind Tlaquepaque to a reproducible comparison. That combined key distinguishes the row; it is not a recommendation or evidence of a physical connection.
Tlaquepaque's reference point is 20.6412° north and 103.2934° west. The IANA identifier America/Mexico_City is shared by 22 city rows in this catalog, while the GeoNames class PPLA2 is shared by 341 rows. Tlaquepaque's row carries both second- and first-order administrative labels. Tlaquepaque's point falls in the lower-latitude coordinate band used by this atlas's row checks. Tlaquepaque's time-zone field defines the narrower catalog cohort; its place class is shared more broadly. GeoNames supplies no elevation for Tlaquepaque, 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.
