Demographics

[edit]

Population

[edit]

At the time of the 2006 National Census, the city's population was 81,902 in 18,264 households.[5] The following census in 2011 counted 91,739 people in 23,254 households.[6] The 2016 census measured the population of the city as 96,728 people in 26,770 households.[2]

Climate

[edit]

Dogonbadan has a hot semi-arid climate (Köppen BSh) bordering on a hot-summer Mediterranean climate (Csa). Dogonbadan’s proximity to the hot Persian Gulf makes its climate closer to Mesopotamia or coastal cities like Bushehr than to most of Kohgiluyeh and Boyer-Ahmad province. The city features sweltering and arid summers contrasting with pleasant and fairly wet winters.
