List of cities in Morocco

The basic unit of local government in Morocco is the commune.

[1] At the time of the 2014 population census, Morocco was divided into 1538 communes, 256 of which were classified as urban[2] and also called municipalities.

[2] Urban centres were defined by the High Commission for Planning for some rural communes.

In its 2014 census report, the High Commission for Planning also published a list of the legal populations of seven major Moroccan cities, some of which comprise more than one administrative unit.

[5] Those legal population figures are incorporated into the list, and the city definitions they are based upon are provided in the notes.
