Wrocław

Source identity and administrative path

The source row behind Wrocław is GeoNames ID 3081368. Its recorded administrative path is Wroclaw → Lower Silesia → Poland, and GeoNames classifies the place as a first-order administrative seat.

Wrocław 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 2026-07-02; 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, Wrocław ranks 820 by recorded population. Inside the 6 selected Poland entries it ranks 3; inside the 125 entries in its broad region it ranks 62.

Its 672,545 population value is 1.02 times the 656,218 median for the country cohort and 1.01 times the 664,046 regional median. Wrocław is rank 3 among the 6 selected Poland entries, so a percentage band would overstate this small cohort.

Wrocław'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

Wrocław's three nearest other atlas coordinates are Poznań at 145.169 km with 536,151 recorded people; Łódź at 184.946 km with 639,890 recorded people; Prague at 215.979 km with 1,165,581 recorded people. The closest-to-farthest distance spread is 70.81 km. Compared with Poznań, Wrocław's recorded population is 1.25 times as large. Against Wrocław, Poznań follows Poznan → Greater Poland → Poland in the source. Its point has higher latitude and lower longitude; it belongs to the same selected Poland cohort, uses the shared Europe/Warsaw identifier, and carries the same first-order administrative seat class.

Its recorded population is below Wrocław's. Against Wrocław, Łódź follows Lodz → Lodz Voivodeship → Poland in the source. Its point has higher latitude and higher longitude; it belongs to the same selected Poland cohort, uses the shared Europe/Warsaw identifier, and carries the same first-order administrative seat class. Its recorded population is below Wrocław's. Against Wrocław, Prague follows Prague → Czechia in the source.

Its point has lower latitude and lower longitude; it belongs to the selected Czechia cohort rather than Poland, uses Europe/Prague instead of Europe/Warsaw, and carries capital of a political entity rather than first-order administrative seat. Its recorded population is above Wrocław's. Its nearest-neighbor distance ranks 861 of 1,206 from shortest to longest in the same snapshot. Wrocław'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 3081368, the coordinate pair 51.1029 / 17.0301, country rank 3 of 6, and neighbor GeoNames 3088171 at 145.169 km bind Wrocław 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

Wrocław's reference point is 51.1029° north and 17.0301° east. The IANA identifier Europe/Warsaw is shared by 6 city rows in this catalog, while the GeoNames class PPLA is shared by 429 rows. Wrocław's row carries both second- and first-order administrative labels.

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