Central Hungary

Central Hungary encompasses Budapest and Pest County, forming a statistical region that serves as the governmental and economic center of the country.

The region emerged as Hungary's administrative hub following the 1999 territorial reorganization, which established new statistical divisions aligned with European Union standards.

The region maintains numerous educational institutions, including Eötvös Loránd University and the Budapest University of Technology, which draw students from across Europe.

The administrative structure includes 23 districts in Budapest and multiple municipalities in Pest County, each managing local services and development programs.

Central Hungary operates under a dual governance system where Budapest functions both as a city and a separate administrative entity within the region.
