More Data, More Functionality

GeoDB now pulls in many new small cities and towns, for a total of over 525,000 populated places. As part of this update, you may now see cities with zero population. This usually just means the population data is currently not available from GeoNames/Wikipedia (but it could also mean you're seeing a ghost town).

In addition, you now have an easy way to find a city's containing adninistrative region (for example, its county or other local administrative division).

For example, to get the containing county for Los Angeles:

GET https://wft-geo-db.p.rapidapi.com/v1/geo/cities/Q60/locatedIn

Please see the docs on this new endpoint for further details.
