The largest of Ohio's 865 recorded places, ranked by population — 8,330,844 people across the state's towns and cities.
The essentials
Columbus is the largest place we record in Ohio, with 913,175 residents. The three largest together hold 19% of the 8,330,844 people counted across the state's recorded towns and cities. That total sums listed places rather than measuring the state 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.
