Subdivisions of Podgorica

Municipality of Podgorica (Montenegrin: Opština Podgorica / Општина Подгорица) is divided into 57 local communities (Montenegrin Latin: mjesne zajednice, singular: mjesna zajednica), bodies in which the citizens participate in making decisions about matters of relevance to the community in which they live.

In 2022, two city municipalities (Montenegrin Latin: gradske opštine, singular: gradska opština) were separated from the municipality of Podgorica. The Tuzi Municipality and the Zeta Municipality now function independently from Podgorica Capital City.

There are also unofficial neighbourhoods and suburbs of Podgorica. There are many different interpretations on boundaries and existence of certain neighbourhoods, as neighbourhood is not an administrative category, but unofficial geographical notion.
