Mutubis, 
Egypt
80,283 people lived in Mutubis in 2025. It is the 7767th largest of the world's 12,138 cities, and the 143rd largest in Egypt.
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 Mutubis'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: 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.

How to read this: Egypt and its 219 cities in 2025, each a dot whose area is its number of people (the largest is Cairo). Mutubis 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, Mutubis covered 11 km², and buildings, roads and other built-up land covered 1.6 km² of it. That is 20 m² of built-up land for each person, about a square 4 by 4 metres. Since 2010, its built-up land has grown by 60%, and its people have grown by 9%.
How to read this: each pale square is the city's whole area, the strong square inside it the part that is built on; one scale for all three, so a bigger square is more land. Hatched is the UN's projection.
Of every 100 people in Egypt
Its share of Egypt
Of every 1,000 people in Egypt in 2025, 1 lived in Mutubis, which is 80,283 people.
How to read this: 1,000 squares stand for everyone in Egypt, one square for every 1,000th person. Count the coloured ones and you have Mutubis's share; the grey remainder live somewhere else in the country.

Apparatus
Sources and method
The figures for Mutubis are the UN's own, at five-year steps: an estimate for each of 2010 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 Mutubis publishes about itself: how the figures here are put together.
