Oghi, 
Pakistan
177,887 people lived in Oghi in 2025. It is the 3400th largest of the world's 12,138 cities, and the 106th largest in Pakistan.
That figure counts the whole built-up area, not the area Oghi governs, so it may be far from the number the city publishes about itself. How the UN measures a city.

How Oghi grew
Count 10 people in Oghi in 2000 and the same count gives 25.9 in 2025.
On the UN's projection it will have 382,400 people in 2050. On the UN's projection it passes 250,000 people between 2030 and 2035. 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: 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: every dot is one of the 323 cities in Pakistan in 2025, and a dot's area is how many people live there, the biggest being Karachi. The ringed dot in colour is Oghi; 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, Oghi covered 50 km², and buildings, roads and other built-up land covered 4.8 km² of it. That is 27 m² of built-up land for each person, about a square 5 by 5 metres. Since 2005, its built-up land has grown to 3.7 times its size, and its people are 2.1 times as many.
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 Pakistan
Its share of Pakistan
Of every 1,000 people in Pakistan in 2025, 1 lived in Oghi, which is 177,887 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 Oghi; the grey ones are everybody else, in other cities, in towns and out in the country.

How to read this: names are in order of size, the leading number being each city's rank among all 12,138 in 2025; the bars share a scale within a list. A jump in the ranks means a city under 300,000 people, which is not given a page here.
Apparatus
Sources and method
The figures for Oghi 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 Oghi publishes about itself: how the figures here are put together.
