[a] Although Barbuda and Redonda are called dependencies, they are integral parts of the state, making them essentially administrative divisions.

Redonda was annexed into Saint John and unlike Barbuda, is not an autonomous island, instead, it is a first-level administrative division subordinate to Saint John.

Most capitals have town status, however, Codrington is a village, Fitches Creek is an estate, and St. John's is the sole city in the country.

With the exception of St. John's and Codrington, the majority of parish/dependency capitals are not the largest settlements in the parish.

Parham is the second-largest city in Saint Peter; that being said, it would be the largest if the population of All Saints—which is spread across three parishes—were not included.
