Municipalities of Chile

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A municipality is the legal entity responsible for running the smallest administrative subdivision in Chile called a (comuna) or commune. Each municipality is governed by a directly-elected body (municipalidad), consisting of one mayor (alcalde) and a group of councillors (concejales), for a period of four years. Chilean law provides for grouping several communes together for administration by a single municipality. As of 2007 the communes of Antártica, Chile and Cabo de Hornos are the only group administered by a single municipality — Cabo de Hornos.

Chile's 345 municipalities operate within 53 provinces[1] (, which are themselves part of 15 regions.
