List of cities by elevation
The following is a list of the world's major cities by elevation. In addition, the country, continental region, latitude and longitude are shown for all cities listed.
While the elevation of cities may vary enormously, this list should represent a notional elevation for each city which is verifiable and reasonably acceptable for comparison. The cities must at least of a population of 175,000 to be on the list.
This list is incomplete; you can help by expanding it.
