## Suburban Geography

France contributes 102 markets, the United Kingdom 81, Spain 23, Italy 21, Poland 16, and the Netherlands 14.
The list spans 399 verified distinct markets across 11 European countries, occupying 399 of 400 ranked slots (rank 285 is vacant — see the data correction note in the Country Breakdown section). Germany leads with 124 markets, reflecting the polycentric character of the German urban system and dense suburban retail development in the Rhine-Ruhr, Rhine-Neckar, and Saxon-Thuringian corridors. France contributes 102 markets, the United Kingdom 81, Spain 22, Italy 21, Poland 16, and the Netherlands 14.

The metropolitan areas generating the most qualifying suburbs are London (14), Paris (14), Stuttgart (12), and Le Havre (9). The Rhine-Ruhr system — encompassing Düsseldorf, Essen, Cologne, and Dortmund — collectively generates over 30 qualifying suburbs across multiple reference metro centroids.

**Data correction note (2026-07-16):** rank 285 previously listed "Auch, ES" — a duplicate
of the genuine rank-15 entry (Auch, France, a suburb of Toulouse), entered a second time
under a corrupted country code. Auch is a real French market and does not have a Spanish
counterpart; the duplicate has been removed rather than left in place or replaced with an
invented market. Rank 285 is intentionally vacant pending a genuine 400th market from
project-gis's live regional-markets scoring export — inventing a replacement name or score
here would misstate real data. The country tally below reflects 399 verified distinct
markets across the remaining 399 filled ranks.
