FYI on City-level statistics

There are 2 particularly promising-sounding, world-wide books in General Reference that cover city-level statistics:

Encyclopedia of urban cultures : cities and cultures around the world / edited by Melvin Ember and Carol R. Ember.
TC Wilson Library Reference Quarto HT108.5 .E53 2002

Encyclopedia of world cities / Immanuel Ness.
TC Magrath Library Reference Quarto HT108.5 .N47 1999 Non-Circulating
TC Wilson Library Reference Quarto HT108.5 .N47 1999 Non-Circulating

There is another title, World Encyclopedia of Cities, that we only have for North America. -- Amy
