Fuyang,
China
415,492 people lived in Fuyang (30.0° N, 119.9° E) in 2025. It is the 1354th largest of the world's 12,138 cities, and the 253rd largest in China.
Like every city on this site, Fuyang is counted as a built-up area seen from above rather than as a city government's territory. Why that changes the number.

How to read this: read it left to right, 1975 to 2050, one column every five years, the height being people. Hatching marks the projected years. Below, a strip of the UN's confidence: strong colour where the census maps are recent and detailed, pale where they are not, blank where the place was not counted as a city.

Where it is
How to read this: every dot is one of the 2,082 cities in China in 2025, and a dot's area is how many people live there, the biggest being Shanghai. The ringed dot in colour is Fuyang; the grey dots are the rest. The outlines around them are neighbouring countries.
Area and built-up land · km²
How much land it covers
In 2025, Fuyang covered 82 km², and buildings, roads and other built-up land covered 17 km² of it. That is 42 m² of built-up land for each person, about a square 6 by 6 metres. Since 1980, its built-up land has grown to 15.7 times its size, and its people are 2.7 times as many.
How to read this: the outer pale square stands for all the land the city covers, and the solid square inside it for the part with buildings, roads and the like on it. All three squares share a scale, so you can compare them by eye. A hatched one is a year the UN has projected.

How to read this: the figure in front of a name is where that city stands among the 12,138 cities the UN counted in 2025, and each bar is its people, on one scale per list. Numbers are missing where a city has fewer than 300,000 people and so has no page of its own.
Apparatus
Sources and method
The figures for Fuyang 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 Fuyang publishes about itself: how the figures here are put together.
