Tver, 
Russia
366,542 people lived in Tver in 2025. It is the 1564th largest of the world's 12,138 cities, and the 38th largest in Russia.
That figure counts the whole built-up area, not the area Tver governs, so it may be far from the number the city publishes about itself. How the UN measures a city.

How Tver grew

On the UN's projection it will have 395,230 people in 2050.
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: every dot is one of the 254 cities in Russia in 2025, and a dot's area is how many people live there, the biggest being Moscow. The ringed dot in colour is Tver; 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, Tver covered 80 km², and buildings, roads and other built-up land covered 19 km² of it. That is 51 m² of built-up land for each person, about a square 7 by 7 metres. Since 1975, its built-up land has grown by 58%, and its people have fallen by 22%.
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 100 people in Russia
Its share of Russia
Of every 1,000 people in Russia in 2025, 3 lived in Tver, which is 366,542 people.
How to read this: 1,000 squares, one for every 1,000th person in Russia; the coloured squares live in Tver. The grey rest live in other cities, in towns or in the countryside.

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