List of cities in the Netherlands by province
Map of the major cities in the Netherlands
Below are twelve alphabetical lists of cities in the Netherlands ordered by province.
City rights in the Netherlands define a place's status. Smaller urban areas are known as dorpen. Certain places are sometimes also considered cities especially if they historically had city rights or if they function as an urban center in a rural area; while larger population centers in densely populated areas are often neither considered a village nor a city and are usually referred to by their municipalities.
When discussing cities, the distinction is sometimes made between the "big four"—Amsterdam, Rotterdam, The Hague and Utrecht—middle-sized cities and other ones.
