How it behaves

  • 227 of the 13,755 localities (1.65%) have no population figure — near-abandoned villages for which the 2021 census published no value (the smallest figure published anywhere in the country is 3). This is not a missing link: all 227 exist, with geometry and with a GeoNames identifier. County and administrative-unit figures are unaffected — they come from their own census rows, not from summing localities. Anyone who sums the localities themselves loses, nationwide, 96 people out of 19,053,815.
  • The unit's active localities, ordered by population descending (the seat comes first).
  • The rows do NOT carry the uat context (you know it from the path) — that appears only in the county-level shortcut.
  • tip is a raw code; the readable names come from /nomenclatoare/tipuri. Filter with ?tip=.

What it is for

  • Populating the second „locality" dropdown once the user has picked the unit (commune or town).
  • Listing the component villages of a commune for an administrative form.
  • With ?tip=sat, listing only the component villages, excluding the seat.

Error codes

CodeSlugWhen it occurs
401neautentificatToken missing, invalid, expired or revoked.
403feature_indisponibilThe current plan does not include the feature the route depends on.
404negasitThe administrative unit does not exist.
422validareA parameter failed validation (tip); detalii says which and why.
429cota_depasitaThe plan's monthly quota has been exceeded (see Retry-After).

All errors share the same shape. eroare.cod is stable and is the value you should branch on in code — not the text in mesaj, which may change.
