This is a list of cities, towns and settlements in Greenland, the data is dated 2010. The term city can hardly be applied to any population of Greenland, since the most populous city is Nuuk, with 15,469 inhabitants. In Greenland there are two types of settlements, by (in Danish, city) and bygd (in Danish, settlement). The difference between the two decreases since the new administration that was introduced in 2009, with which the influence of the previous centers of the municipalities diminished.
