Global cities of the future: An interactive map

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Explore the cities and emerging urban clusters that will drive dramatic growth and demographic changes over the next generation.

Mckinsey has published the list of cities and emerging urban clusters that will drive growth and demographic changes over the next generation. Trivandrum finds its place and the whole south india dominates the Indian cluster.

Over the next 15 years, 600 cities will account for more than 60 percent of global GDP growth. Which of them will contribute the largest number of children or elderly to the world’s population? Which will see the fastest expansion of new entrants to the consuming middle classes? How will regional patterns of growth differ?

Explore these questions by browsing through the interactive global map below, which contains city-specific highlights from the McKinsey Global Institute’s database of more than 2,000 metropolitan areas around the world. You’ll see why growth strategies focused at the country level may fall short in the future: with new hot spots emerging and household wealth surging in little-known urban centers, companies may have to adopt a much finer-grained approach to tap into the growth that lies ahead.
