This is a list of cities, towns and settlements in Greenland. The English term 'city' hardly applies to any populated area in Greenland (although several places in Greenland are considered "cities"), as the most populated place is Nuuk with 14,501 inhabitants. In Greenland they distinguish two kinds of settled areas: ''by'' (Danish for 'town') and ''bygd'' (Danish for 'settlement'). The seat of each municipality is a ''by'', whereas every other settlement in a municipality is a ''bygd''. A ''bygd'' can have anything from one to about five hundred inhabitants. Many places have Danish names in addition to the Greenlandic names. The Danish name, when applicable, is shown in parentheses. The first list shows a ranked list of all towns with more than 1000 population. The second list is ordered by region and municipality and includes all with more than 50 population plus some of the even smaller settlements. ==Towns in Greenland with more than 1,000 population (cities) (2005)== *Nuuk (Godthåb) Pop. 14,501 *Sisimiut (Holsteinsborg) Pop. 5,965 *Ilulissat (Jakobshavn) Pop. 4,533 *Qaqortoq (Julianehåb) Pop. 3,144 *Aasiaat (Egedesminde) Pop. 3,100 *Maniitsoq (Sukkertoppen) Pop. 2,859 *Tasiilaq (Ammassalik) Pop. 1,848 *Paamiut (Frederikshåb) Pop. 1,817 *Narsaq Pop. 1,764 *Nanortalik (Bjørnessted)Pop. 1,509 *Uummannaq Pop. 1,366 *Qasigiannguit (Christianshåb) Pop. 1,320 *Upernavik (Forårssted)Pop. 1,178 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「List of cities and towns in Greenland before 2008」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
