The comunas separately coloured, showing neighbourhood divisions

The city of Buenos Aires is administratively divided into fifteen comunas,^[1] unlike the Province of Buenos Aires, which is subdivided into partidos, or the rest of Argentina, in which the second-order administrative division is departamentos.^[2] Each comuna encompasses one or more neighbourhoods (barrios), which are represented in the respective community centres for administrative purposes.^[3]

The division by comunas was instituted by the 1996 Constitution of the City of Buenos Aires,^[4] and modified in 2005 by Law #1777.^[5] The law was again modified in 2008,^[6] 2011,^[7] and 2013.^[8]
