Daloa, 
Côte d’Ivoire
360,630 people lived in Daloa in 2025. It is the 1584th largest of the world's 12,138 cities, and the 3rd largest in Côte d’Ivoire.
The UN measures every city in the world the same way, by where the buildings are rather than where the boundary runs, so this figure and Daloa's own can differ widely. What counts as a city here.

projected (after 2025) · how sure the UN is: high moderate low
How to read this: each column is one of the UN's five-yearly estimates, 1975 through 2050, and taller means more people. Where a column is hatched the year has not happened yet. The strip under the columns is the UN's own confidence in each figure, palest where it is least sure; where it is blank the city was not on the list at all.

Where it is
How to read this: Côte d’Ivoire and its 47 cities in 2025, each a dot whose area is its number of people (the largest is Abidjan). Daloa is ringed, in colour; the other cities are grey. Neighbouring countries are outlines.
Area and built-up land · km²
How much land it covers
In 2025, Daloa covered 60 km², and buildings, roads and other built-up land covered 16 km² of it. That is 44 m² of built-up land for each person, about a square 7 by 7 metres. Since 1975, its built-up land has grown to 2.1 times its size, and its people are 3.6 times as many.
How to read this: pale is the whole of the city's land; the stronger square inside it is what is actually built on. The three are drawn to the same scale, so a larger square really is more land, and hatching means the year is the UN's projection rather than a count.
Of every 100 people in Côte d’Ivoire
Its share of Côte d’Ivoire
Of every 100 people in Côte d’Ivoire in 2025, 1 lived in Daloa, which is 360,630 people.
How to read this: shrink Côte d’Ivoire to 100 people and this is what you get. The coloured squares are the ones who would live in Daloa; the grey ones are everybody else, in other cities, in towns and out in the country.

How to read this: the number before each name is its place among all 12,138 cities in the world in 2025; bars are people, on one scale per list. Only cities that reach 300,000 people have a page here, so a gap in the numbers is a smaller city.
Apparatus
Sources and method
The figures for Daloa are the UN's own, at five-year steps: an estimate for each of 1975 to 2025, then projection to 2050. Projected years are drawn hatched, and the UN publishes no range of uncertainty for a city. What a city means here, how the UN measures one, and why that number can differ from the one Daloa publishes about itself: how the figures here are put together.
