Districts
There are 79 districts in Slovakia. In 69 cases, the district is named after and the code derived from its principal city which is included in the district. Two cities, Bratislava (the capital) and Košice (KE), consist of 5 and 4 districts respectively. This fact is not reflected on the plates, only one code is used. Additionally, Košice-okolie (KS) comprises an area around Košice (the city itself excluded) while having its seat in the city proper. Each district is assigned at least one code. Eight cities that are also seats of the region (kraj) are assigned more. Since 18 August 2010, Bratislava has been registering plates with its second code, BL. Bratislava is the only okres to do so and will remain in this position for years as Košice, the runner-up, has only reached the Hx series as of March 2011.

Famous quotes containing the word districts:
“Cities need old buildings so badly it is probably impossible for vigorous streets and districts to grow without them.... for really new ideas of any kind—no matter how ultimately profitable or otherwise successful some of them might prove to be—there is no leeway for such chancy trial, error and experimentation in the high-overhead economy of new construction. Old ideas can sometimes use new buildings. New ideas must use old buildings.”
—Jane Jacobs (b. 1916)
