?

the definition of a city varies, but it’s generally thought to be an inhabited place that’s more populous than a town or village. the size of that population can range from several thousand to tens of millions. and if we’re talking about the world’s largest city as it relates to population, we need to look to japan.

城市的界说各纷歧样，但一般来说是指比乡镇或村庄人员更多的有人居住的当地。人员规划从几千到数千万不等。假定咱们谈论的是世界上最大的城市，就人员而言，咱们需要看看日本。?

what’s the world’s most populous city?

世界上人员最多的城市是哪个??

according to the un’s world cities report for 2021, tokyo is the largest city on earth, with a population of more than 37 million occupying the metro area. for comparison, there are fewer people living in the entire state of texas (about 28.6 million) or on the entire continent of australia (approximately 25.5 million).

根据联合国《2021年世界城市陈述》，东京是地球上人员最多的城市，其人员跨越3700万。比较之下，它比整个德克萨斯州（约2860万人）或整个澳大利亚（约2550万人）的人员还要多。?

the population residing within tokyo’s official city limits is smaller at 14 million, though that’s still impressive. the japanese capital saw its first population dip in a quarter of a century during the covid-19 pandemic, but it hasn’t lost its no.1 spot on the list.

居住在东京市区内的人员要少一些，只需1400万，但这个数字仍然令人惊奇。在新冠肺炎疫情大盛行时刻，日本首都东京迎来了25年以来的初度人员降低，但它没有从榜单之首掉下来。?

the next most populous urban area is delhi, india, which was home to around 31.1 million residents in 2021. though it’s america’s biggest city, new york doesn’t come close to the top of the ranking. the population in 2021 stood at about 8.46 million within the city borders and 19.77 million for the greater metro area.

世界上人员第二多的城市是印度的德里，2021年该市人员约为3110万。尽管纽约是美国最大的城市，但就人员而

言并没有名列前茅。2021年，纽约市区内助员为846万，总人员为1977万。?

what’s the world’s biggest city in square miles?

世界上面积最大的城市是哪个??

new york may be small compared to some asian cities, but it holds a different international superlative. if your definition of the world’s biggest city looks at literal size rather than population, the big apple takes the cake.

与一些亚洲城市比较，纽约可以不算大，但它具有不一样的世界顶级方位。假定你对世界上最大城市的界说是看字面上的规划而不是人员，那么“纽约”可谓是赢家。?

its square mileage ranges from 3300 to 4700 square miles, depending on what sources you look at. (city borders aren’t as black-and-white as a you may think, which makes it tricky to measure both area and total population.)

纽约的面积在3300平方英里到4700平方英里之间，这取决于你所查阅的材料。（城市鸿沟并不像你愿望的那样是清楚明晰，这使得测量面积和总人员很难。）?

when discussing the world’s largest cities, people usually mean population, not area. if you’ve ever been to a city where the apartments—and the commuters—are stacked on top of one another, you know that physical space can be limited in the planet’s busiest metropolises.

当谈论世界上最大的城市时，我们一般指的是人员，而不是面积。假定你早年去过一个公寓和通勤者拥堵不堪的城市，你就会晓得，在这个星球上最繁忙的大都市，物理空间可所以有限的。
