List of urban areas in Finland by population
This is a list of urban areas in Finland by population, with the 100 largest localities or urban areas in Finland in 2013. The list is based on data from Statistics Finland that defines an urban area as a cluster of buildings with at least 200 inhabitants where the distance between buildings does not exceed 200 metres. Listings such as this change significantly, even within the period of a decade; for instance, as of January 2020, Tampere had dropped to the position of the third largest municipality.
