Communities

Mauritius is divided into villages ("Village Council Areas") (VCA) for administrative purposes. The following table lists the VCA which are (at least partially) in the Black River District. The boundaries of the districts are not congruent with those of the municipalities. Municipalities are therefore sometimes assigned to two or three districts. There are 16 parishes (VCA) in the Black River District.
