List of municipalities in Ahal Province

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Map of the five provinces of Turkmenistan. Ahal is highlighted in red.

This article is referencing as a list all lawfully recognized municipalities of Ahal Province, Turkmenistan. Since September 8, 2025, there are 253 municipalities in Ahal, including a city with district status, eight cities, 10 towns, and 234 villages.

In Turkmenistan, any administrative division, including municipalities, is designated by law and may be changed by decree by the Assembly of Turkmenistan, as stated by the 23rd article of the constitution.[1] They all are referenced in a list rarely shared by the Turkmen government, yet available for consultation through the 2022 census.[2]

Criticized by external observers, the census figures should be taken very carefully as they seem to overestimate the actual population of the country.[3][4]
