Timofeevka, 
Russia
321,680 people lived in Timofeevka in 2025. It is the 1787th largest of the world's 12,138 cities, and the 43rd largest in Russia.
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 Timofeevka's own can differ widely. What counts as a city here.
The UN writes its name Тимофеевка; “Timofeevka” is our romanization.

How Timofeevka grew
Count 10 people in Timofeevka in 1975 and the same count gives 18.5 in 2025.
On the UN's projection it will have 307,083 people in 2050. It passed 250,000 people between 1980 and 1985.
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: Timofeevka is the dot in colour with a ring around it. The grey dots are the other cities of Russia in 2025, 254 in all, led by Moscow, each drawn with an area that matches its people. Countries next door are outlines only.
Area and built-up land · km²
How much land it covers
In 2025, Timofeevka covered 55 km², and buildings, roads and other built-up land covered 12 km² of it. That is 36 m² of built-up land for each person, about a square 6 by 6 metres. Since 1975, its built-up land has grown to 2.2 times its size, and its people have grown by 85%.
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.
Of every 100 people in Russia
Its share of Russia
Of every 1,000 people in Russia in 2025, 2 lived in Timofeevka, which is 321,680 people.
How to read this: shrink Russia to 1,000 people and this is what you get. The coloured squares are the ones who would live in Timofeevka; 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.
Apparatus
Sources and method
The figures for Timofeevka 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 Timofeevka publishes about itself: how the figures here are put together.
