Austria Districts (original) (raw)

Austria is divided into nine states. The states are subdivided into 80 politische Bezirke (political districts) and 15 Statutarst�dte (statutory cities). These 95 units are further subdivided into Gemeinden (communes or municipalities). There were 2,354 commune-level entities in 2013, down from 2,359 in 1999. Here is a list of the districts and statutory cities of Austria.

Type: b = Politischer Bezirk (political district); s = Statutarstadt (statutory city). HASC: Hierarchical administrative subdivision codes. The middle two letters identify the state. For key,see the States of Austria page. AKZ: Autokennzeichen are the letter codes used on license plates to identify the district in which a caris registered. A few places have their own licence-issuing authorities, and thus use codes which differfrom the rest of their district. Specifically, Schwechat has SW, although it's part of Wien Umgebung; thecity of Leoben hasLE, although it's part of Leoben; and Bad Aussee and Gr�bming have BAand GB,respectively, although they are both part of Liezen. GKZ: Gemeindekennziffer (commune code number) is a hierarchical numbering system for states,districts, and communes of Austria. Each commune can be represented by a five-digit number. Thefirst digit represents a state, and is the same as the ISO 3166-2 code for the state. The first threedigits represent a district, as shown in the table. NUTS: Nomenclature of Territorial Units for Statistics (level 3); the letters AT should be prefixed to eachthree-digit code. See table below for key to codes. Population: 2011-10-31 census from population registers.

NUTS codes were developed by Eurostat in order to report European statistics on the basis of a set of comparable regions. If these NUTS codes are truncated to two digits, they become level-2 NUTS codes, which represent an Austrian state. Truncated to one digit, they become level-1 NUTS codes, which represent a region (for a list of regions, see "Administrative Subdivisions of Countries"). Here is a list of all level-3 NUTS codes in Austria, with their names. Note that in Austria, NUTS level-1 and level-3 areas have no administrative significance.
