142 cities of oblast significance and 238 cities of rayon significance shall act as centres of amalgamated hromadas according to the perspective plans for the territorial formation of hromadas in oblasts. Some of them are already the centres of hromadas, and some of them are in the middle of amalgamation process. Some cities were not designated as hromada centres in some of the oblast-level plans. MinRegion has prepared relevant graphic information (DOWNLOAD) concerning the build-up of capable hromadas. This information is based on the valid plans existing for each oblast.

MinRegion points out that cities of oblast and rayon significance are hubs of economic activity, which naturally makes them potential centres of future amalgamated hromadas. The infrastructure of these cities is also superb compared to the neighbouring villages and settlements.
