List of cities in Denmark by population
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
(Redirected from List of towns in Denmark by inhabitants)
This is a list of cities in Denmark by population.
The population is measured by Statistics Denmark. The statistics bureau uses the term by (city, though in this context closer to urban settlement or urban area), which is defined as a contiguous built-up area with a maximum distance of 200 metres between houses, unless further distance is caused by public areas, cemeteries or similar. Furthermore, to obtain by-status, the area must have at least 200 inhabitants.[1] Some urban areas in Denmark have witnessed conurbation and grown together.
