    Toda la etnografia de Venezuela esta bien reflejada en ellas, aunque tienen quizas un poco mas de extremos tanto de gente muy griffe como de gente muy Europea (blanca/castiza) comparadas con el gran parte del resto del pais, pero igual resumen muy bien toda la etnografia Venezolana, y juraria que su total aporte porcentual Euro/Amerindio/Africano ha de ser el mismo, o estar muy cerca del promedio nacional.

    Otras ciudades como Barquisimeto y Maracaibo son algo mas mestizas y menos triraciales que el promedio Venezolano; los llanos (llanuras centrales del pais, entre el orinoco y las cadenas montanosas al oeste y norte del pais), lo mismo; el estado Nueva Esparta es tambien mas mestizo y menos triracial que el promedio Venezolano; ciertos focos bajo costeros son mucho mas Africanos que el promedio Venezolano; los Andes son mas Euro/Euro-mestizos que el promedio Venezolano, etc.
    Here the translation in English:

    In the case of Venezuela, the interior (non-coastal) cities of the north center of the country such as:

    Caracas
    The Teques
    Maracay
    Valencia

    ... among others.

    All the ethnography of Venezuela is well reflected in them, although they have perhaps a little more extremes of both very griffe people and very European people (whites/castizos) compared to most of the rest of the country, but they still summarize very well all the Venezuelan ethnography, and I would swear that their total Euro/Amerindian/African percentage contribution must be the same, or very close to the national average.

    Other cities like Barquisimeto and Maracaibo are somewhat more mestizo and less triracial than the Venezuelan average; the llanos (central plains of the country, between the Orinoco and the mountain ranges to the west and north of the country), the same; Nueva Esparta state is also more mestizo and less triracial than the Venezuelan average; some few lowland coastal pockets are much more African than the Venezuelan average; the Andes are more Euro/Euro-mestizo than the average Venezuelan, etc.

    Your opinion on this, Tooting Carmen?

    Very interesting thanks. In Colombia's case, it would be really hard to pinpoint somewhere with a close-to-average ethnic composition, as the country is really split into a minimum of two very distinct regions - Andes vs coast. Plus also the rural border regions with the other countries have relatively substantial Amerindian communities.

    I have read about Barranquilla and Santa Marta albeit being coastal cities, have both many triracials and many mestizo to white people. Maybe some Colombian department half way between the coast and the Andes could have an ethnic composition in-between?

    For Poland - the majority of towns / cities do have an average composition, duh. It is because Poland is ethnically among most homegenous European countries.

    Wouldn't Warsaw, Krakow and possibly Wroclaw, Gdansk and Rsezszow be a bit more diverse than other cities and towns?

    In the second post I forgot to include the towns of Dartford, Southeast England and Tilbury, East of England - both of which have large Black populations. Further, in the OP I should have included Swindon, Southwest England as a town with a nowadays roughly average ethnic composition, as it has had a lot of immigration from Brazil and India in particular in recent years, making it much more diverse than it used to be.

    I honestly cannot think of any department that would fully reflect the country's overall ethnic composition.

    Ankara and Konya, I guess. Both have a Turk majority of around %70 and a Kurdish minority of around %10–15, and the rest are refugees who are mostly Syrian. But Konya has more refugees than Ankara.
