Regency of Indonesia
Regency in East Java, Indonesia
Kediri Regency
is a
regency
(
kabupaten
) located in
East Java
province,
Indonesia
. It is one of two '
Daerah Tingkat II
' that has the name 'Kediri' (the other is
the City of Kediri
, which is separate from the Regency). The Regency covers an area of 1,563.42 km
2
and had a population of 1,499,768 as of the 2010 census
[2]
and 1,635,294 at the 2020 census;
[3]
the official estimate as at mid 2023 was 1,684,454 (comprising 849,958 males and 834,496 females).
[1]
The capital of the regency is in the town of Ngasem, which is effectively a northern suburb of
Kediri city
, just about 200 metres over the municipal border. However, several regency government establishments are also located within
Kediri city
, although it is administratively a separate political entity. This is because both the regency and the city share common cultural and historical roots, and the administrative division occurred only after the
War of Independence
. The regency shares borders with
Jombang Regency
to the north,
Malang Regency
to the east,
Blitar Regency
and
Tulungagung Regency
to the south, and
Nganjuk Regency
to the west, while
Kediri city
is wholly surrounded within the Regency.
Kelud
mountain, one of the most active volcanoes in Indonesia, is partially administered by the Government of Kediri Regency (along with
Blitar Regency
).
The regency also contains the famed "Kampung Inggris", or English Village. Kampung Inggris is a small area in the district of Pare where over a hundred businesses offering various English courses are clustered. Students come from all over Indonesia to take courses in the English Village, where it is common for people to speak with each other in English (rather than Indonesian or Javanese) for the sake of practice.
Administrative districts
[

]
The regency is divided into twenty-six
districts
(
kecamatan
), listed below with their areas and their populations at the 2010 census
[2]
and the 2020 census,
[3]
together with the official estimates as at mid 2023.
[1]

in each district (totaling 343 rural
desa
and a single urban

kelurahan
in the district of the same name), and its post code(s).
