Nias Regency (Kabupaten Nias)
The regency was previously divided administratively into 32 districts (kecamatan). However, following the creation of the new North Nias Regency, West Nias Regency and the newly independent city of Gunungsitoli, the residual Nias Regency was composed of only nine districts, although a tenth district (Sogaeadu) was created in 2012 from part of Gido district. These districts are tabulated below with their areas (in km2) and their 2010 Census and 2020 Census populations, together with the official estimates as at mid 2021. The table also includes the locations of the district administrative centres, the number of administrative villages (rural desa and urban kelurahan) in each district, and its postal code.
Note: (a) the population of Songaeadu in 2010 is included with the figure for Gido district (from which it was split in 2012).
