When it comes to measuring the population of a city, it is a lot more difficult that you’d actually imagine, there are multiple ways of distinguishing a cities population, the main ones are:

City proper (administrative) - The United Nations defines the term as "the single political jurisdiction which contains the historical city centre."

The Metropolitan area - A metropolitan area is a city and its surrounding suburbs. The word "metropolitan" comes from two Greek language words meaning "mother" and "city". A metropolitan area may be much larger than its inner city, and its suburbs may be smaller towns and villages which are now connected to the larger city as it has grown.

And the urban area - An urban area is the region surrounding a city. Most inhabitants of urban areas have nonagricultural jobs. Urban areas are very developed, meaning there is a density of human structures such as houses, commercial buildings, roads, bridges, and railways. "Urban area" can refer to towns, cities, and suburbs.

Let's take Bangkok as an example, its a bit of a crazy one.

Its city proper population is just 5.8 million, its metropolitan population is 16.2m and its urban area is 17.5m.
