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 70,000 people) being considered cities. The distinction between villages and parishes is more blurry and varies more between each diocese, with villages usually being independent municipalities whose populations are either very small in size compared to nearby ones, or located in sparsely populated areas.<br/>

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

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'' ('''martausięe 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.

Large uninhabited or extremely sparsely populated areas are often not assigned to any municipality, but are administered by the circuit and defined as an ''extra-parish territory'' ('''šrimāṇāyusięe ṣramāṇa''').
