Municipalities of Bolivia
Encyclopedia
Municipalities in Bolivia are administrative divisions of the entire national territory governed by local elections. Municipalities are the third level of administrative divisions, below departments
and provinces
. Some of the provinces consist of only one municipality. In these cases the municipalities are identical to the provinces they belong to.
In 1994, the entire territory of Bolivia was divided into municipalities, where previously only urban areas were organized as municipalities. As an effect of decentralization
through the 1994 Law of Popular Participation the number of municipalities in Bolivia has risen from an initial twenty-four (in 1994) to 327 (in 2005) to 337 (in 2010), Of the 327 municipalities existing after 2005, 187 are inhabited by mainly indigenous
population; 184 of these are located in the five Andean departments, with the remaining three in Santa Cruz department. New municipalities must have at least 10,000 residents, or 5,000 in the case of border areas.
