01What the data says — and does not say
This page separates the checked GeoNames row for Tyumen—768,358, Asia/Yekaterinburg, and source coordinates—from live travel claims. Those fields identify and compare the record; they do not prove current transport, accessibility, census totals, or a City Atlas Club visit.
Wikidata's localized description: city in eastern Russia.
02This city's dataset fingerprint
The source row behind Tyumen is GeoNames ID 1488754. Its recorded administrative path is Tyumen Oblast → Russia, and GeoNames classifies the place as a first-order administrative seat. Tyumen 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 2026-04-14; 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, Tyumen ranks 718 by recorded population. Inside the 39 selected Russia entries it ranks 18; inside the 125 entries in its broad region it ranks 53. Its 768,358 population value is 1.19 times the 648,213 median for the country cohort and 1.16 times the 664,046 regional median. Tyumen sits in the second quarter of this atlas's Russia population cohort. Tyumen'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.
Tyumen's three nearest other atlas coordinates are Yekaterinburg at 299.169 km with 1,495,066 recorded people; Chelyabinsk at 336.701 km with 1,202,371 recorded people; Omsk at 542.258 km with 1,172,070 recorded people. The closest-to-farthest distance spread is 243.089 km. Compared with Yekaterinburg, Tyumen's recorded population is 0.51 times as large. Against Tyumen, Yekaterinburg follows Sverdlovsk Oblast → Russia in the source. Its point has lower latitude and lower longitude; it belongs to the same selected Russia cohort, uses the shared Asia/Yekaterinburg identifier, and carries the same first-order administrative seat class. Its recorded population is above Tyumen's. Against Tyumen, Chelyabinsk follows Chelyabinskiy Gorodskoy Okrug → Chelyabinsk → Russia in the source. Its point has lower latitude and lower longitude; it belongs to the same selected Russia cohort, uses the shared Asia/Yekaterinburg identifier, and carries the same first-order administrative seat class. Its recorded population is above Tyumen's. Against Tyumen, Omsk follows Omsk Oblast → Russia in the source. Its point has lower latitude and higher longitude; it belongs to the same selected Russia cohort, uses Asia/Omsk instead of Asia/Yekaterinburg, and carries the same first-order administrative seat class. Its recorded population is above Tyumen's. Its nearest-neighbor distance ranks 1,110 of 1,206 from shortest to longest in the same snapshot. Tyumen'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 1488754, the coordinate pair 57.1522 / 65.5272, country rank 18 of 39, and neighbor GeoNames 1486209 at 299.169 km bind Tyumen to a reproducible comparison. That combined key distinguishes the row; it is not a recommendation or evidence of a physical connection.
Tyumen's reference point is 57.1522° north and 65.5272° east. The IANA identifier Asia/Yekaterinburg is shared by 6 city rows in this catalog, while the GeoNames class PPLA is shared by 429 rows. Tyumen's row carries a first-order administrative label but no second-order label. Tyumen's point falls in the higher-latitude coordinate band used by this atlas's row checks. Tyumen's time-zone field defines the narrower catalog cohort; its place class is shared more broadly. GeoNames supplies no elevation for Tyumen, 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.
