How many meters are in 1 kilometer? Officially, the definition of a meter is the length of the path travelled by light in a vacuum during a time interval of 1/299,792,458 of a second. Therefore, the official definition of a kilometer is ten times that distance, which happens to be 1,000 meters. For a real world comparison, imagine Central Park in New York City. It is 849 meters wide â just short of a kilometer â and approximately 4 kilometers long.
