The largest of Azores's 62 recorded places, ranked by population — 206,343 people across the region's towns and cities.
The essentials
Ponta Delgada is the largest place we record in Azores, with 20,056 residents. The three largest together hold 23% of the 206,343 people counted across the region's recorded towns and cities. That total sums listed places rather than measuring the region itself, so treat it as coverage, never as an official population.

Figures are the latest available in GeoNames (CC BY 4.0), which draws on national censuses of varying dates — treat them as recent, not same-year. Country totals are UN World Population Prospects 2024 (medium variant) where the UN lists the country separately; the handful it reports under a parent state keep a GeoNames figure and are marked as such.
