Rehash of Gist README.md:

This dataset was taken from: Geonames for Cities

Within this dataset, city names are provided alongside their latitude, longitude, and population.

Attributes:

  • name: The name of the city. The main focus of the dataset.
  • latitude: Latitude coordinate. Position of the city can be used to determine commonality between word fragments/sounds and location. It can also be used to see densely populated regions.
  • longtide: Longitude coordinate. See latitude.
  • population: The population of the city. Can be used to see if there is any relation between large cities and their names. Also useful for seeing how densely a region is populated.

Tasks and Questions:

  • What areas around the world are the most densely populated?
  • Does population have any relationship with city name?
  • Which city-name-word sounds are most common in various regions?
