 0     minimum_inhabitants grapher/un/2024-01-17/urban_agglomerations_definition/urban_agglomerations_definition#minimum_inhabitants   2 major           The concept of an 'urban area' lacks a universal definition, with national variations based on minimum population thresholds or other metrics like population density, infrastructure, and pre-defined cities.   
[
    "There is no consistent definition of what constitutes an 'urban area'. This is highly variable across countries. This data presents a given country's minimum threshold of inhabitants needed for it to be defined an 'urban area'. For many countries, there is no defined threshold based on inhabitants; other metrics such as population density, infrastructure, or even pre-defined cities may be used.",
    "Note that some countries with minimum inhabitant thresholds noted here also include additional qualities (such as population density) to be met."
