Populated places in Estonia
- Populated places in Estonia
Populated places [Estonian: "asula" or "asustusüksus".] in Estonia are settlements or territorial units within a municipality. Populated places have no administrative functions. A group of populated places form a rural municipality with local administration. Most towns constitute separate urban municipalities, while some have joined with surrounding rural municipalities.
Officially there are four types of populated places in Estonia:
*town (est: "linn")
*borough (est: "alev")
*small borough (est: "alevik")
*village (est: "küla")
As of 1 November 2002, there are 47 towns, 9 boroughs, 173 small boroughs and 4,430 villages in Estonia.
