The official Class I urban table records 14,76,931 people for Vijayawada U.A.@ in 2011. It ranks 30 among the main urban agglomeration and standalone-city totals in that table. We keep the main total and do not add its constituent places again.

For market research

Use this count to understand the scale of the historical urban unit. An outlet, delivery service or local campaign may serve only part of it. Define the catchment, eligible customers and buying unit before attaching a spending assumption.

A state’s 2026 projection does not provide a verified current projection for this city. Updating the city count requires a documented city-specific method or an applicable official release. Our calculator keeps the Census 2011 label when you select this city.

For visitors and migration research

A resident population count does not measure the number of visitors, daily commuters or people present in a neighbourhood on a given day. Tourist visits can repeat, while migration statistics depend on a usual-residence definition and a reference period.

For Vijayawada, begin with the geographic unit printed in the source. A statistic for the surrounding district, a metropolitan planning region or the whole state cannot be substituted without an explicit boundary comparison.
