The Kaifeng metropolitan area has an area of 547 km² and a population of 796 261. This area is divided into 4 districts and one ethnic district. The city of Kaifeng has a population of 540 287 in 23 street committees and 1 special street committee. The 2000 Census gives a population of 652 896 with suburbs. The 1982 Census gives a population of 604 229 in 327 km² for the Kaifeng metropolitan area, which suggests about 500 000 in the urban area. This gives a low long-run growth rate of 1.5%.

The metropolitan area's districts were reorganized on May 30, 2005. The areas given are for the new districts. The reorganization is only reported for units relevant to this analysis. Chinese-reading users may consult http://www.xzqh.org/ for the full details of the reorganization.
