A municipality in Armenia referred to as community (Armenian: համայնք hamaynk, plural: Armenian: համայնքներ hamaynkner), is an administrative subdivision consisting of a settlement (Armenian: բնակավայր bnakavayr) or a group of settlements (Armenian: բնակավայրեր bnakavayrer) that enjoys local self-government. The settlements are classified as either towns (Armenian: քաղաքներ kaghakner, singular Armenian: քաղաք kaghak) or villages (Armenian: գյուղեր gyugher, singular (Armenian: գյուղ gyugh). The administrative centre of a community could either be an urban settlement (town) or a rural settlement (village).
