The city is the 6th smallest government unit in terms of land area; among the Metro Cebu local government units the city is the second smallest next to the municipality of Cordova in the island of Mactan. The city's land area is only 4.5% of the total land area of Metro Cebu and less than 1% of the total land of the province of Cebu.

The North [[land reclamation|Reclamation]] Project, now known as the North Special Administrative Zone, currently has about {{convert|180|ha|abbr=on}} reclaimed land. Of the 180 hectares, about {{convert|36|ha|abbr=on}} belong to the city.

It is one of the two (the other one being the municipality of Consolacion) local government units located within the mainland Metro Cebu where the elevation of land is less than {{convert|100|m|abbr=on}}.

Many of the areas of the city are extremely flat. About 77.37% is within the 0-8% [[slope]] category. Barangays belonging to this region are Centro, Looc, South Special Administrative Zone, Cambaro, Opao, Umapad, Paknaan, Alang-alang, Tipolo, Ibabao, Guizo, Subangdaku, Mantuyong, Maguikay and Tabok. The greater portion of the city, comprising about 70%, is dominated by the Mandaue Clay Loam soil series. This is found in the 0-2% and 2-5% slope ranges. Faraon clay loam characterizes the rest of the land with slope range from 5-8% and up to 25-40%.<ref name="Land Use">{{cite web| url = http://www.mandauecity.gov.ph/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=69&Itemid=81| title = Land Use| work = Mandaue City| publisher = Mandaue city government| access-date = April 6, 2010| archive-date = June 4, 2011| archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20110604082446/http://www.mandauecity.gov.ph/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=69&Itemid=81| url-status = dead}}</ref>
