Notes

1. Neochori [el] (pop. 418) doesn't appear to have a town status. It may be a village in Kerkini municipal unit. In such case the nearest town would probably be Sidirokastro, 24 kilometres (15 mi) away. The nearest village on the Bulgarian side is 4.5 kilometres (2.8 mi) distant Kolarovo (pop. 1826)
