Tashikeruike, 
China
411,163 people lived in Tashikeruike in 2025. It is the 1370th largest of the world's 12,138 cities, and the 255th largest in China.
That figure counts the whole built-up area, not the area Tashikeruike governs, so it may be far from the number the city publishes about itself. How the UN measures a city.
The UN writes its name 塔什科瑞克乡; “Tashikeruike” is our romanization.

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

Area and built-up land · km²
How much land it covers
In 2025, Tashikeruike covered 57 km², and buildings, roads and other built-up land covered 19 km² of it. That is 46 m² of built-up land for each person, about a square 7 by 7 metres. Since 1975, its built-up land has grown to 5.3 times its size, and its people have grown by 94%.
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.

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 Tashikeruike 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 Tashikeruike publishes about itself: how the figures here are put together.
