The rank-size rule is displayed in Saudi Arabian cities, proving the rule valid. This is displayed by the slight differences between the actual population of the cities and the population predicted by rank-size rule. While these differences do exist, they don't invalidate the rule because cities still deal with humans, and are exposed to a range of unique human and environmental factors. Even though this is true, Saudi Arabia's cities follow rank-size rule to a large extent.
