Subdivisions of Podgorica
Open-knowledge reference entry
Municipality of Podgorica (Montenegrin: Opština Podgorica / Општина Подгорица) is divided into 57 local communities (Montenegrin Latin: mjesne zajednice, singular: mjesna zajednica), bodies in which the citizens participate in making decisions about matters of relevance to the community in which they live.
In 2022, two city municipalities (Montenegrin Latin: gradske opštine, singular: gradska opština) were separated from the municipality of Podgorica. The Tuzi Municipality and the Zeta Municipality now function independently from Podgorica Capital City.
There are also unofficial neighbourhoods and suburbs of Podgorica. There are many different interpretations on boundaries and existence of certain neighbourhoods, as neighbourhood is not an administrative category, but unofficial geographical notion.

This brief starts where responsible research should: with the source description of “Subdivisions of Podgorica” as open-knowledge reference entry. Everything that follows is an evidence route, not borrowed authority.
Why this record matters
The subject matters to the general reference register because the source frames it as open-knowledge reference entry. Its deeper value depends on whether names, dates, institutions and citations support that framing.
The citation trail is more important than the brevity of the summary: it shows where individual claims can be examined in context. The source revision retrieved here is dated Sep 15, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q7631067. None of the 0 selected statements returned an explicit reference. The first chronological checks are 2022.
The absence of detail may reflect summary conventions rather than a lack of surviving documentation. The source lead contains qualifying language; that uncertainty should survive quotation, summary and reuse. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
