The shrinking of the population that was evidenced by the 2023 census has endangered the existence of some municipalities in the country. At least 5 of them have a significant decrease in the number of inhabitants below 5 thousand inhabitants, which has called into question the need to still be a municipality.
Pustec municipality in Korça District has the lowest number, with 1843 inhabitants, followed by Libohova in Gjirokastër District with 2765 inhabitants, Këlcyrës with 4400 inhabitants, Fushe-Arresit with 4878 inhabitants and Konispoli with 4898 inhabitants.
While from the 61 municipalities that the country has, 9 others have under administration a population of less than 10 thousand inhabitants.
For experts, this shrinking of the population, which has come as a result of migratory flows, must address a number of problems related to services.
Eduart Gjokutaj, economic expert: 'This contraction has come from their economic problems as well as to seek a better life and they are mainly migratory. It should be seen how the services of these small mini-municipalities have served as a whole in the various regions of the country.
According to Gjokutaj, the 2023 census has revealed the need for a new administrative division.
Eduart Gjokutaj, economic expert: Look at the administrative division to keep citizens close to their residences to once again make policies and reformat once again what the census brought out.
Municipalities with less than 10 thousand inhabitants are Poliçani, Dropulli, Memaliaj, Përmeti, Tepelena, Kolonja, Puka, Delvina, Himara. / Clan TV
