Administrative districts and villages

edit

When it was formed in January 2008, the new Dogiyai Regency comprised three districts (distrik) from within the southern part of the existing Nabire Regency, but these were subsequently reconstructed into the present ten districts. The former Sukikai District was divided between new Sukikai Selatan (in the south) and Piyaiye (in the north) Districts. The Mapia District was also divided, with the southern half split between new Mapia Barat and Mapia Tengah Districts, leaving a residual Mapia District in the north. The Dogiyai (in the west), Kamu Selatan, Kamu Timur and Kamu Utara Districts were formed from most parts of the Kamu District.

The following is a table of the current districts (kecamatan) - and of the 79 villages (all rated as rural kampung) by district - within the Dogiyai Regency, based on Statistics Indonesia,[4] with the district areas and their populations at the Censuses of 2010[2] and 2020,[3] together with the official estimates as at mid 2021.[5] The table also includes the numbers of administrative villages within each district, and its post code. The villages named in bold below are the locations of the district administrative centres.
