Greater Noida, 
India
329,385 people lived in Greater Noida in 2025. It is the 1743rd largest of the world's 12,138 cities, and the 283rd largest in India.
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 Greater Noida's own can differ widely. What counts as a city here.

How Greater Noida grew
For every 10 people in Greater Noida in 2000, there were 47.8 in 2025.
On the UN's projection it will have 399,792 people in 2050. It passed 250,000 people between 2010 and 2015. The UN first counts it as a city in 2000, when it passed 50,000 people.
projected (after 2025) · how sure the UN is: high moderate low
How to read this: one column every five years, 1975 to 2050; its height is the number of people. Hatched columns are the UN's projection. The thin strip beneath says how sure the UN is of each figure: the stronger the colour, the surer. A blank means the place was not on the UN's list of cities that year.

Where it is
How to read this: every dot is one of the 2,054 cities in India in 2025, and a dot's area is how many people live there, the biggest being New Delhi. The ringed dot in colour is Greater Noida; 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, Greater Noida covered 103 km², and buildings, roads and other built-up land covered 24 km² of it. That is 74 m² of built-up land for each person, about a square 9 by 9 metres. Since 2000, its built-up land has grown to 6.8 times its size, and its people are 4.8 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.

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 Greater Noida are the UN's own, at five-year steps: an estimate for each of 2000 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 Greater Noida publishes about itself: how the figures here are put together.
