List of cities and towns in Finland information


The following is a list of cities and towns (Finnish: kaupunki, Swedish: stad) in Finland.[a] The basic administrative unit of Finland is municipality. Since 1977, there is no legal difference between towns and municipalities,[1] and a municipality can independently decide to call itself a city or town if it considers that it meets the requirements of an urban settlement.[2] The following list includes the municipalities that use the word kaupunki in their official name. For cities and towns founded before the 1960s, the list includes the year it was chartered.
