Cameroon urban geography:
- Five largest cities: #1: Douala , #2: Yaoundé, #3: Garoua, #4: Kousséri, #5: Bamenda
- Population of largest city: 1,388,082
- Rank size rule: #2: 694,041 , #3: 462,694, #4: 347,020 , #5: 277,616
- Actual population: #2: 1,299,369, #3: 436,899 , #4: 435,547 , #5: 393,835
- In this case, the rank size rule proves to be correct a few times. For example, in Yaoundé. It shows that the population is almost 500,00 less than it actually is. However, the other cities like, Garoua, are not too far off.
