Built-up urban areas
The followings are the contiguous urban areas in Indonesia, with a population of over one million, according to Demographia's "World Urban Areas" study. Demographia defines an urban area (urbanised area agglomeration or urban centre) as a continuously built up land mass of urban development that is within a labor market (metropolitan area), without regard for administrative boundaries (city).[13]

Notes[13] |
---|---|---|---|---|
1 | Jakarta | 3,540 | 34,540,000 | Jakarta's built-up urban area extends beyond its official metropolitan area, including Karawang. |
2 | Bandung | 487 | 7,065,000 | Although Surabaya metropolitan area has a larger population than Bandung metropolitan area, the former comprises more rural areas while the latter has more dense urban population. |
3 | Surabaya | 911 | 6,499,000 | |
4 | Medan | 478 | 3,632,000 | Medan is the largest urban area outside of Java island. |
5 | Semarang | 259 | 1,992,000 | Although Semarang metropolitan area is the fourth most populous in Indonesia, it actually comprises a significant portion of rural areas. Semarang's urban population is much smaller than Medan and Yogyakarta. |
6 | Makassar | 178 | 1,952,000 | Makassar is the largest urban area outside of Java and Sumatra. |
7 | Palembang | 221 | 1,889,000 | Palembang is the third largest urban area outside of Java island, after Medan and Makassar. |
8 | Yogyakarta | 230 | 1,568,000 | Although it has no metropolitan area recognised on national level, Yogyakarta has the fifth largest urban population in Indonesia, extending far beyond its small city proper area of 32.5 km2.[14] |
9 | Malang | 212 | 1,493,000 | Although it has no metropolitan area recognised on national level, Malang urban population extends far beyond its administrative area of 145 km2.[14] |
10 | Denpasar | 177 | 1,389,000 | Denpasar is the second largest urban area outside of Java and Sumatra, after Makassar. |
11 | Batam | 243 | 1,362,000 | As an island-city, Batam has not developed a metropolitan area with its surrounding regions, hence its urban population is entirely within its administrative area. |
12 | Pekanbaru | 239 | 1,118,000 | Pekanbaru has no metropolitan area recognised on national level, and its urban population is pretty much concentrating in its city proper. |
13 | Surakarta | 477 | 1,106,000 | Although it has no metropolitan area recognised on national level, Surakarta's urban population extends far beyond its administrative area of 46 km2.[14] |
14 | Cirebon | 105 | 1,017,000 | Although it has no metropolitan area recognised on national level, Cirebon's urban population extends beyond its administrative area of 37.4 km2.[14] |
gollark: Because it's the coolest and best solution!
gollark: > are they thoyes.> 40 years for us to figure out mass recycling idkI mean, maybe, but you still have to go out to the deserts and replace all of them, and they'll slowly degrade in effectiveness before that.
gollark: I think because the main advantage was that it wouldn't produce neutrons in some sort of fusion reaction, and neutrons cause problems, except it still would because of the fuels each fusing with themselves.
gollark: I think I read somewhere that it wasn't very useful (he3) but i forgot why.
gollark: I too want vast swathes of land to be covered in generators which will not even work half the time because of "night" and "poor weather", which are hilariously energy-expensive to produce in the first place, and which will break after 40 years.
