List of cities in Lviv Oblast
There are 44 populated places in Lviv Oblast, Ukraine, that have been officially granted city status (Ukrainian: місто, romanized: misto) by the Verkhovna Rada, the country's parliament.[2] Settlements with more than 10,000 people are eligible for city status although the status is typically also granted to settlements of historical or regional importance.[3][4][5]As of 5 December 2001, the date of the first and only official census in the country since independence,[a] the most populous city in the oblast was the regional capital Lviv, with a population of 732,818 people, while the least populous city was Uhniv, with a population of 974 people.[6][7] The city of Lviv is also one of eight World Heritage Sites in Ukraine recognized by UNESCO.[8]
From independence in 1991 until 2020, nine cities in the oblast were designated as cities of regional significance (municipalities), which had self-government under city councils, while the oblast's remaining 35 cities were located in 20 raions (districts) as cities of district significance, which are subordinated to the governments of the raions.[9][10][7] On 18 July 2020, an administrative reform abolished and merged the oblast's raions and cities of regional significance into seven new, expanded raions.[3][11] The seven raions that make up the oblast are Chervonohrad, Drohobych, Lviv, Sambir, Stryi, Yavoriv, and Zolochiv.[12]
