The Bucharest Metropolitan Area (Romanian: Zona Metropolitană București) is a metropolitan area project formally established since 2016 that includes Bucharest, the capital city of Romania, and surrounding communes. If completed, it would have a population of about 2.4 million,[8] only slightly larger than that of the city proper (2,0 million). It would also be a member of the METREX network.[9]
According to Eurostat, Bucharest has a functional urban area of 2,412,530 residents (as of 2015[update]).[10]
