[edit] Demographics

There is definitive misunderstanding of what "city" means. According to official Serbian statistics data, population of Belgrade is as follows: Territorial unit of City of Belgrade (Град Београд) 1576124 Urban settlements (Градска) 1281801 Other settlements (Остала) 294323 Belgrade-urban area (Београд-насеље) 1119642

Urban Belgrade (continuous area of urban development) has 1,119,649 inhabitants. Political boundaries of "City of Belgrade" are much broader and include other municipalities/towns/villages as well as agricultural land (total area is enormous, 3,222.68 km² (1,244.3 sq mi) vs. for instance Greater London, which is 1579 km² (609 square miles) with 8M inhabitants) and cannot be regarded as one urban entity. My suggestion would be to correct numbers for "City", "Urban", and "Metropolitan area" should be defined. BR, --Plantago (talk) 09:13, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
