Municipalities in Armenia are referred to as communities (համայնքներ "hamaynkner", singular համայնք "hamaynk" ). Each community is self-governing and consists of one or more settlements ("bnakavayrer", singular "bnakavayr"). Settlements are classified as either towns ("kaghakner", singular "kaghak") or villages ("gyugher", singular "gyugh").
