The 212 municipalities of Slovenia (as of 2012)

This is a list of the cities and largest municipalities in Slovenia , sorted alphabetically and by population.

By far the largest agglomeration in Slovenia is Ljubljana with a population of 491,407 (as of January 1, 2005). A quarter of the country's population is thus concentrated in the capital region.

The higher administrative units in Slovenia are the municipalities. These have been grouped into twelve regions by the government for statistical purposes .

According to the number of inhabitants

The following table contains the 30 largest municipalities (Slovenian občine , Sg. Občina ), 11 of which are cities (sl. Mesta , Sg. Mesto ). The population figures given reflect the results of the census results from 1981, 1991, 2002 and 2018 (March 31, respectively). The 2018 population figures relate to the municipality; the older figures only refer to the main town, i.e. without taking into account the partly extensive rural settlement areas in the municipalities. The table shows the region to which the municipality belongs.
