Cianjur Regency is a regency (kabupaten) of West Java, Indonesia. The area of the regency is 3,614.35 km2 and its population at the 2010 Census was 2,171,281;[2] the 2020 Census produced a total of 2,477,560[3] and the official estimate as at mid 2022 was 2,542,793.[1] The district of Cianjur is its seat. Northern parts of the regency form a valley (above the 'neck'), and are far more densely populated than southern regions. As such, a portion of the northern valley (consisting of Cugenang, Pacet, Sukaresmi and Cipanas districts in the far northwest of the regency) was briefly included in a definition of Greater Jakarta called Jabodetabekjur (jur for Cianjur).

Administrative divisions

Cianjur Regency is divided into thirty-two districts (kecamatan), listed below with their areas and their populations at the 2010 and 2020 Censuses,[2][3] together with the official estimates as at mid 2022.[1] The table also includes the locations of the district administrative centres, the number of villages in each district (totaling 354 rural desa and 6 urban kelurahan), and its post code.
