Notes:
The name, city population and the coordinates give general information for each city.
The 2-digit ISO country code represents a unique code of the country in which the city is located. Population in agglomeration gives the total population of the agglomeration area, in which a city is located. If a city is not part of an agglomeration, city population and population in agglomeration will have the same values.
The NUTS-3 region code is a unique region code defined by Eurostat, whereas NUTS-3 region population represents the total population of the NUTS-3 region, to which the city belongs.
All population figures are given for 1998.
