West Karachi
West Karachi district reference
This is the West Karachi record in the Sindh location directory. This website groups it under Sindh. The figures and source notes below identify the reporting unit used; they do not change the administrative links held in this directory.
2023 census reference
- Population: 2,679,380
- Reported area: 370 square kilometres
- Urban population share: 90.71%
Reporting unit: KARACHI WEST DISTRICT. These figures describe the unit used in PBS Census 2023 Table 1. They are a dated reference, not a 2026 population estimate or a measurement of the current website map. Later district splits, renamings and boundary changes require a like-for-like comparison.
Name and boundary notes
The website label is West Karachi; the source spells or orders the name as KARACHI WEST DISTRICT. This display cross-reference does not rename the location or change its URL.
This figure is for the named census district within Karachi, not the whole city or Karachi Division. Postal service areas should not be assigned to this district from the word Karachi alone.

For a delivery code, use the Sindh postal directory. Census boundaries and postal delivery areas serve different purposes; a district name alone does not verify an office assignment.
