The lowest level of local administration is the "municipality" one — whose names are in most dioceses either ''parish'' ('''mānai'''), ''city'' ('''marta'''), or sometimes ''village'' ('''poga'''). The distinction between them is mostly of population, with municipalities above a certain population (in many dioceses 40.000<sub>12</sub> (82,944) people) being considered cities. The distinction between villages and parishes is more blurry and varies more between each diocese, with villages usual ly being independent municipalities whose populations are either very small in size compared to nearby ones, or located in sparsely populated areas.

Clusters of nearby mid-small parishes often form an entity called ''inter-parish territory'' ('''maimānāyuseh ṣramāṇa'''), sharing between them some basic services like recycling, local transport, or fire protection.

84 cities across the Inquisition have the status of '''håmnamarta''' (closed city), with various levels of movement restriction for non-inhabitants. They are often situated in or near important facilities such as large electric plants, military bases and industries, cosmodromes, or labour camps.

While the lowest independent division is the parish (including cities and villages), a minor area in a parish may be recognized as a ''hamlet'' ('''mūrė''') (note that some dioceses use the term for village (''poga'') instead), which for cities is usually a ''borough'' ('''martauseh poga''', literally "urban village"). Note that cities may also have hamlets: boroughs are usually defined as such if many of them form a large contiguous urban area; smaller inhabited places in rural areas administered by a city are still hamlets.
