Source notes: AllRanks assistant verified on 2026-10-22 against the linked PBS original Table 1 PDF, including all five named administrative units and the corresponding columns. Rural/urban subtotal rows and the Pakistan national aggregate are excluded. PBS Table 1 does not include Azad Jammu and Kashmir or Gilgit-Baltistan, so neither is imputed. Population table note: figures include headcounts from restricted areas for which detailed demographic and housing data were not received.
