This is a list of cities and town in Tigray, Ethiopia ordered by size and alphabetically.
By population
[edit]The table below shows cities and towns with more than 40,000 inhabitants (from the projection for 2016 by using the 2007 census data).[1][2] The population numbers are referring to the inhabitants of the cities themselves, suburbs and the metropolitan area outside the city area are not taken into account. Given the suburbs and the metropolitan area, the number of inhabitants might be much larger in several cases. Mekelle, for example, might have a total population of 4.5 to 5 million if also taking the metropolitan area into account.
