West Tulang Bawang Regency (Indonesian: Kabupaten Tulung Bawang Barat) is a regency (kabupaten) of Lampung Province, Sumatra, Indonesia. It was created on 29 October 2008 from what were formerly the western districts of Tulang Bawang Regency. It has an area of 1,201.15 km2 and had a population of 250,707 people at the 2010 Census[2] and 286,162 at the 2020 Census;[3] the official estimate as at mid 2022 was 289,620.[1] The regency seat is the town of Panaragan Jaya.

Administrative districts

At the time of the 2010 Census the Regency comprised eight districts (kecamatan), but subsequently a ninth district - Batu Putih - was created from the southwest part of Gunung Terang District. The first three districts listed below lie south of the Tulang Bawang River (although Tulang Bawang Udik District straddles the river in the west), while the other six districts lie north of the river. The districts are 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 2022.[1] The table also includes the locations of the district administrative centres, the number of administrative villages in each district (totalling 93 rural desa and 3 urban kelurahan), and its post code.
