Towns and villages in Hungary

Hungary has 3,152 municipalities as of July 15, 2013: 346 towns (Hungarian term: Template:Lang Template:IPA, plural: Template:Lang Template:IPA; the terminology does not distinguish between cities and towns – the term town is used in official translations) and 2,806 villages (Hungarian: Template:Lang Template:IPA, plural: Template:Lang Template:IPA) of which 126 are classified as large villages (Hungarian: Template:Lang Template:IPA, plural: Template:Lang). The number of towns can change, since villages can be elevated to town status by act of the President. The capital Budapest has a special status and is not included in any county while 25 of the towns are so-called cities with county rights. All county seats except Budapest are cities with county rights.

Four of the cities (Budapest, Miskolc, Győr, and Pécs) have agglomerations, and the Hungarian Statistical Office distinguishes seventeen other areas in earlier stages of agglomeration development.[1]

The largest city is the capital, Budapest, while the smallest town is Pálháza with 1038 inhabitants (2010). The largest village is Solymár (population: 10,123 as of 2010). There are more than 100 villages with fewer than 100 inhabitants while the smallest villages have fewer than 20 inhabitants.
