2,887 municipalities and towns in Slovakia according to Eurostat, local administrative units (LAU) 2024 (LAU list 2024, updated 12 January 2026). Municipalities and towns including Bratislava and Košice, each counted as one municipality. The LAU list shows 2,927 units because it lists the 39 city districts of Bratislava and Košice instead of the two cities, plus 3 military districts. In addition there are 8 self-governing regions and state offices; business statistics do not cover public administration (section O). This is a figure from official statistics, not the size of our dataset.
