In 2002 the central district had a population of 422,302. This district is the heart of a large (1)conurbation called the metropolitan county of Greater Manchester, which has a population of 2,513,468. People from Manchester are called Mancunians.

In the same way as "London" is used to refer to the entire metropolitan area of Greater London, the term "Manchester" is often used to refer to the Greater Manchester conurbation, rather than the City of Manchester which is a metropolitan borough. The constituent parts of Greater Manchester vary in how separately they identify themselves from Manchester. Salford, for instance, is a city in its own right with a distinct identity despite directly adjoining the urban centre of Manchester.
De la misma manera que "Londres" se usa para referirse a toda el área metropolitana del Gran Londres, el término "Manchester" se usa a menudo para referirse a la conurbación del Gran Manchester, en lugar de a la Ciudad de Manchester, que es un distrito metropolitano. Las partes constituyentes del Gran Manchester varían en la forma en que se identifican por separado de Manchester. Salford, por ejemplo, es una ciudad por derecho propio con una identidad distinta a pesar de estar directamente junto al centro urbano de Manchester.
