Administrative districts

edit

At the time of the 2010 Census, the Regency was divided into seven districts (kecamatan), but in 2013 an eighth district was added by the splitting of the Lepar Pongok District into separate districts based on Lepar Island and Pongok Island respectively. The districts are tabulated below with their areas and their populations at the 2010 Census[2] and 2020 Census,[3] together with the official estimates as at mid 2022.[1] The table also includes the locations of the district administrative centres, the numbers of administrative villages in each district (totaling 50 rural desa and 3 urban kelurahan), and its postal code.
