Nakonde is a settlement in Zambia's Muchinga Province, recorded by GeoNames as a populated place and counted as an urban area in the national census. GeoNames places it at about 9.342 degrees south and 32.745 degrees east. The census of 18 August 2022 counted 91,107 people there, compared with 41,836 at the census of 16 October 2010. City Population compiled that 2022 figure from ward figures of the Central Statistical Office of Zambia. The SRTM 90 metre elevation model gives about 1590 metres above sea level at its coordinates, which is mountain terrain, and because Zambia has no coastline the settlement lies inland.
