## How this was worked out

A zone counts if any part of it falls within 8 km of 55.0801, 24.2754 - Jonava'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 26,423 (GeoNames record updated 2022-09-26).
