The Montevideo metropolitan area (Spanish: Área metropolitana de Montevideo) refers to the conurbation around Montevideo, encompassing its surrounding suburbs and satellite cities in the departments of Montevideo, Canelones and San José.
According to the 2011 Census of the National Institute of Statistics, the population of the department of Montevideo was 1,319,108 inhabitants, but considering its metropolitan area, it would reach 1,764,745 inhabitants, which corresponds to 54% of the national total.[1]
Greater Montevideo is the most important region of the country in economic and sociocultural terms, having the highest population density.[2] It produces 65% of the national GDP, 60% of the manufacturing industry and 80% of the services.[3]
Since the 1990s, telephone numbers in the area have had the same prefix, 2.[4] Previously, this only belonged to the capital city, while the rest of the surrounding towns governed long-distance call rates.
