Municipalities of Albania
| Administrative Divisions of Albania |

|
This is a list of municipalities (Albanian: bashki) of Albania. Municipalities are the second-level administrative divisions of Albania and are inferior to counties. Prior to 2015, there were two types of municipalities in Albania: municipalities with an urban character called bashki, and municipalities with a rural character called komunë (commune).
Municipalities are all divided into at least two "administrative units" (njësi administrative), which are sometimes referred to as "municipal units" or "mini-municipalities". Administrative units are composed of one or more cities, villages, or neighbourhoods and constitute the third- and final-level administrative divisions of Albania.
In 2014, the government introduced a new administrative scheme that was implemented in June 2015 with local elections, whereby municipalities were reduced to 61 in total and rural komuna were abolished.[1] Most defunct municipalities are now administrative units and may also be cities, villages, or neighbourhoods.[2]
