What is a
SALURBAL City?

SALURBAL's approach allows comparison between cities, sub-cities, and neighborhoods across Latin America

This interactive article guides users through SALURBAL's rigorous protocol for defining cities, sub-cities, and neighborhoods. The resulting geographic areas are linked to all SALURBAL data and allow the team to compare urban areas both within and between countries across the region.
