| Concejos of Álava | |
|---|---|
| Location | Álava, Basque Country, Spain |
| Found in | Municipality |
| Number | 335 [1] [n. 1] |
The concejos ( Basque: kontzejuak, Spanish: concejos) are a type of sub-municipal administrative unit in the province of Álava, Basque Country, Spain.
Within the Spanish legal framework, the general name for such sub-municipal units is minor local entity (formally in Spanish: entidad de ámbito territorial inferior al municipio, lit. 'entity of sub-municipal territorial scope' also known by their acronym EATIMs). [4] [5]
The existence of concejos in Álava is documented since the 13th century. [6] [7] Their current status dates from 1984, when a law providing for elections to the concejos was passed; [8] and from 1995, when their juridical status was clarified. [9]

Similarly, Eskibel has 2 inhabitants as of 2021, and is sometimes omitted from the list.
