Burgos is a Spanish province belonging to the autonomous community of Castilla y León, in the northwest of the Iberian Peninsula. It is divided into 371 municipalities, in accordance with the territorial organization included in article 137 of the Spanish Constitution of 1978:
The State is organized territorially in municipalities, provinces and autonomous communities. All these entities enjoy autonomy in the management of their respective interests.Spanish Constitution of 1978, Title VIII, Article 137.
The figure of the municipality is defined in the Law Regulating the Bases of the Local Regime as “the basic local entity of the territorial organization of the state”, with “legal personality and full capacity for the fulfillment of its purposes" and its elements are "the territory, the population and the organization".
The administration and government of the municipality is carried out through a collegiate body called the city council or mayor's office, headed by a one-person institution: the mayor.
In general, municipalities have several locations, one of which is the municipal seat, which usually houses the town hall. Some municipalities have the name of one of their localities —whether it is their municipal seat or not— and others do not share a name with any of them. There may also be other infra-municipal government bodies that enjoy a certain degree of management autonomy. These are the so-called minor local entities, which correspond to villages, parishes or districts, whose legal representation resides in their neighborhood council.
This is the Spanish province with the largest number of municipalities, a total of 371, currently grouped into seven judicial districts: Aranda de Duero, Briviesca, Burgos, Lerma, Miranda de Ebro, Salas de los Infantes and Villarcayo. In addition to the capital, the province has two other municipalities that exceed 30,000 inhabitants: Miranda de Ebro and Aranda de Duero, with some industrial development.
