List of towns in Romania by Romani population

List of towns in Romania by Romani population

This list contains Romanian urban localities (municipalities or cities/towns) in which Roma people make up over 5% of the total population. The Roma are an ethnic group which make up 2.4% of Romania's population. It must be noted that there are several rural localities (communes and villages) which also have Roma populations exceeding 5% of the total population, even though those are not listed here.

In localities where Roma make up more than 20% of the population, the Romani language can be used when addressing local authorities, while state-funded education and bilingual signs are also provided. This arrangement applies in several communes, as well as one town: Budeşti, Călăraşi, where Roma make up 21% of the population according to the 2002 census.
