Ochi district

Ochi district is an administrative area in Ehime Prefecture comprising several smaller municipalities in an island region. The locality consists of different towns and villages that together form this rural district.

The area developed through the merger of several historical districts spanning multiple decades. These consolidations shaped the district's current form through administrative reforms.

The district administration maintains local governance practices that reflect traditional Japanese municipal organization and community management systems.

The district is a sparsely populated rural region with smaller communities spread across the island landscape. Visitors should expect infrastructure typical of remote Japanese areas.

One of the district's largest towns formed when four separate administrative units merged in the early 2000s. This consolidation created a new administrative center for the island region.
