In Pelaxia, urbanization has been a significant demographic trend, with a substantial portion of the population residing in urban areas. According to the [[National Institute of Pelaxian Statistics]] (INES), urban areas accommodate approximately 84.35% of the population, indicating a notable concentration of inhabitants in urban centers.

The most populous cities in Pelaxia include Albalitor, the capital city, with a population of over 10 million inhabitants, followed by Montia, Agrila and Jojoba, each with populations exceeding 5 million residents. These urban centers not only accommodate a significant portion of the Pelaxian population but also serve as engines of economic growth and development. | |||
Throughout Pelaxia, state capitals typically represent the largest cities within their respective provinces, mirroring the national trend observed in urban areas. Overall, urbanization in Pelaxia reflects the nation's historic industrialization of the northern provinces around the 1870s, provoking internal emigration from the southern rural provinces into the growing industrial centers. This trend has increased in the second half of the 20th century as the economy of the north quickly turned into services and tourism. | |||
