There are nine main towns, most located along the north and east coasts. Ryde is the largest, with a population of 26,152. Newport is the centrally located capital. Most settlements link to Newport by road, which is therefore the hub for island services. There are no settlements with city status; the nearest city is Portsmouth, five miles north-east, then Southampton, ten miles north of East Cowes.
