Nukata District

Nukata District spans across 56.72 square kilometers in the heart of Aichi Prefecture, maintaining a population density of 744 persons per square kilometer.

The district emerged from the ancient counties of western Mikawa Province, where the Matsudaira clan controlled most territories during the Sengoku period.

The district maintains traditional administrative practices through its connection to Mikawa Province, contributing to regional identity within Aichi Prefecture.

The district contains one principal town, Kōta, which serves as the central administrative hub for the entire district's population of 42,200 residents.

Nukata District briefly existed as an independent prefecture during the early Meiji period before merging into Aichi Prefecture in 1872.
