October 31 is celebrated as World Cities Day. The State Statistical Office comes up with superlatives to mark the occasion.

The State Statistical Office in Kamenz is providing interesting facts about Saxony's municipalities to mark "World Cities Day" on Thursday. There are currently 169 towns in the state. Most are located in the Erzgebirgskreis (27), the fewest in the district of Meißen (10).

The largest town in terms of area is Grimma with 21,823 hectares, the smallest Scheibenberg with 900 hectares. According to the state office, the most densely populated town is Heidenau with 1,506 inhabitants per square kilometer, while Liebstadt in Saxon Switzerland is the least densely populated with 33.

The United Nations proclaimed the "World Day of Cities". It is an appeal to states, municipalities and city dwellers to work together for sustainable strategies for cities.
