In your data base, the main data file https://github.com/dr5hn/countries-states-cities-database/blob/master/PHP_Scripts/data/us-cities.json#L335 needs to be updated. There's an empty string where Lexington should be listed:

..."LEWISPORT", "", "LIBERTY",...

2. Also Niederwerth can be added to Rheinland-Pfalz
3. The same issue there with Baveria and Bayern
   The issue there in country+states+cities, countries+states json and cties, world sql files. Raising this issue to know if it's intentional or a bug.

Thank you.

First of, I'd like to thank you for this great list. it would be great to add states abbreviations as well as postal/zip codes for each city if applicable. I know the list will grow big, but it can be handled through bunch of API calls to size it down.

Good work here,

Just one thing, I have noticed many of the accents are not showing correctly. Is this just me or there is an issue with the encoding? I am referring to the SQL files, for instance, cities.sql.

Missing cities like Sitges in Spain (which is one of the most popular cities)

Missing very famous cities like Surat, Rajkot, Bharuch, etc of Gujarat State.

For Morocco the region was correct but the cities doesn't

Thanks for your great work!

I noticed that the United States is missing a list of cities. Is there any chance you'll add them? If not, would you be able to recommend somewhere I could easily get a list to programmatically add to the list?

In cities.sql, I live in id=118291 (a county) and also live in id=121951 (city)

Also, you are missing a Minneapolis listing (KS, MN and NC...) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minneapolis,_North_Carolina

... and, in countries.sql there are places like Vatican and US Minor Outlying Islands that don't have states/"administration areas" or cities - where I am getting with this is, please add latitude and longitude to records on countries.sql and states.sql

The SQL database dumps are not correctly encoded. Therefore, special characters are not exported properly. This results in the data files containing strings like these:

AÄ«bak
Montréal
Colón Department

Based on the meta data in the SQL files, it seems that you are using utf8mb4 as your DB encoding. To export the data in the correct format, specify the encoding when exporting the data, as shown here:

mysqldump -u user_name -p database_name --default-character-set=utf8mb4 --result-file=date_file_name.sql

If you re-export the SQL files, I will test them for you.
