Populated places in Estonia
Populated places in Estonia (officially: settlement units[1]), are cities or settlement units of rural municipalities, but only cities have administrative functions. Settlement units are divided into settlements[2] and urban regions[3] (subdivisions of cities).
Officially there are five types of settlement units in Estonia:
- town/city (Est: linn)
- town without municipal status (Est: vallasisene linn)
- borough (Est: alev)
- small borough (Est: alevik)
- village (Est: küla)
