## How this was worked out

A zone counts if any part of it falls within 10 km of 62.2415, 25.7209 - Jyväskylä's centre as recorded by GeoNames. That radius scales with population and is NOT the administrative city boundary, so a zone just outside the city limits still appears. Population 148,744 (GeoNames record updated 2025-11-18).
