Map of all municipalities of Armenia

A municipality in Armenia referred to as community (Armenian: համայնք hamaynk, plural: Armenian: համայնքներ hamaynkner), is an administrative subdivision consisting of a settlement (Armenian: բնակավայր bnakavayr) or a group of settlements (Armenian: բնակավայրեր bnakavayrer) that enjoys local self-government. The settlements are classified as either towns (Armenian: քաղաքներ kaghakner, singular Armenian: քաղաք kaghak) or villages (Armenian: գյուղեր gyugher, singular (Armenian: գյուղ gyugh). The administrative centre of a community could either be an urban settlement (town) or a rural settlement (village).

Two-thirds of the population are now urbanized. As of 2017, 63.6% of Armenians live in urban areas as compared to 36.4% in rural.[1] As of the end of 2017, Armenia has 503 municipal communities (including Yerevan) of which 46 are urban and 457 are rural. The capital, Yerevan, also has the status of a community.[2][3]

Each municipality bears the same name as its administrative centre, with the exception of 7 municipalities, of which 4 are located in Shirak Province (Ani Municipality with its centre Maralik, Arpi Municipality with its centre Berdasehen, Marmashen Municipality with its centre Mayisyan, Sarapat Municipality with its centre Torosgyugh), 1 is located in Gegharkunik Province (Geghamasar Municipality with its centre Sotk), 1 is located in Syunik Province (Tatev Municipality with its centre Shinuhayr), and 1 is located in Vayots Dzor Province (Yeghegis Municipality with its centre Shatin).
