The rank size rule is not an effective way of accurately estimating Dominican Republic's 5 largest city populations in any way. All of the estimated populations used by the rank size rule are too high to be considered valid. The 3rd largest populated city for Dominican Republic is San Pedro de Macoris, the rank size rule estimated that it would be 921, 749, however... the actual population is nowhere near that amount!
