Louisiana joined the Union on April 30, 1812, becoming the 18th state of the United States. Unlike most states, Louisiana’s governmental structure is uniquely defined by the Lawrason Act, enacted in 1898, which provides a uniform system of municipal governance for the majority of its incorporated places. The state is divided into 64 parishes instead of counties, a historical and legal distinction unique to Louisiana.
Jump Into What Matters
The state has 304 municipalities consisting of 4 consolidated city-parishes, 64 cities, 130 towns, and 106 villages. Municipal classification in Louisiana under the Lawrason Act depends on population size: cities have 5,000 or more inhabitants, towns have between 1,001 and 4,999 inhabitants, and villages have 1,000 or fewer inhabitants.
