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.

How to read this: Pakistan and its 323 cities in 2025, each a dot whose area is its number of people (the largest is Karachi). Havelian Cantonment is ringed, in colour; the other cities are grey. Neighbouring countries are outlines.

In 2025, Havelian Cantonment covered 50 km², and buildings, roads and other built-up land covered 6.6 km² of it. That is 32 m² of built-up land for each person, about a square 6 by 6 metres. Since 1990, its built-up land has grown to 5.1 times its size, and its people are 2.6 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.

Of every 1,000 people in Pakistan in 2025, 1 lived in Havelian Cantonment, which is 205,608 people.

How to read this: shrink Pakistan to 1,000 people and this is what you get. The coloured squares are the ones who would live in Havelian Cantonment; the grey ones are everybody else, in other cities, in towns and out in the country.

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.

The figures for Havelian Cantonment are the UN's own, at five-year steps: an estimate for each of 1990 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 Havelian Cantonment publishes about itself: how the figures here are put together.
