What would be the best formula to use if column B matches something in column X, populate adjacent info in cell Y in column P in same row as column B.
 

Excel Facts

Return population for a City
If you have a list of cities in A2:A100, use Data, Geography. Then =A2.Population and copy down.
Either Vlookup, or Index/Match
