Geomelon — World Cities, Regions & Countries

Multilingual geographic reference data — cities, regions, and countries — sourced from Wikidata and maintained by Geomelon. Every city carries population, coordinates, elevation, area, postal/dialing codes, settlement type, and name translations into 50+ languages. Released under CC0 1.0 — public domain, no attribution required, free for commercial use.

One config per country (see the dropdown above) — pick a country to avoid downloading the whole corpus. Coverage grows as more countries are exported; see the full current list in the configs block or at geomelon.dev/data-packages.

from datasets import load_dataset

spain = load_dataset("geomelon/cities", "spain", split="train")

#  'population': 1620343, 'latitude': 41.3825, 'longitude': 2.1769, ...}
