It depends on who you ask, but per The Guinness Book of World Records, it's Wenquan, which is in the Qinghai region of China (5,019m/16,467ft). But, National Geographic says it's La Rinconada, in the Puno region of Peru (5,100m/16,728ft). Population on Wenquan is difficult to determine...most sources don't specify a number because it's too small, but one source lists it at "under 1000". La Rinconada is listed at 50,000.
In La Paz, Spanish and Aymara are predominantly spoken. In Sucre, Spanish is the official language spoken by the majority of the population.
