Počitelj

Počitelj is a small rural settlement in Lika-Senj County, Croatia, situated at an elevation of 589 meters in a hilly landscape. The village lies within a region scattered with other small communities and surrounded by the countryside typical of this part of Croatia.

The settlement grew as a traditional community with deep roots in the Serbian population. Families such as Ivančević, Njegovan, Pavlica, and Vitas established themselves here and shaped the village's character over many generations.

The settlement represents a testament to rural Croatian life, with traditional architecture and customs preserved through the local Serbian community.

The village sits near several other small settlements including Lički Ribnik, Medak, Brezik, and Lički Čitluk, making it easy to explore the surrounding countryside. Visitors can connect to regional transportation routes from the area.

The village had only four permanent residents recorded in the 2011 census, making it one of the smallest inhabited places in the region. This tiny population reflects how rural migration has affected small communities in the area over recent decades.
