There are 15 populated places in Ivano-Frankivsk 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, Ivano-Frankivsk, with a population of 218,359 people, while the least populous city was Halych, with 6,495 people.[6][7] A wooden church in Rohatyn is part of one of Ukraine's eight World Heritage Sites recognized by UNESCO.[8]
Location of cities in Ivano-Frankivsk Oblast.[1]
From independence in 1991 to 2020, six cities in the oblast were designated as cities of regional significance (municipalities), which had self-government under city councils, while the oblast's remaining nine cities were located in fourteen 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 six new, expanded raions.[3][11] The six raions that make up the oblast are Ivano-Frankivsk, Kalush, Kolomyia, Kosiv, Nadvirna, and Verkhovyna.[12]
