The Tel Aviv District is the geographically smallest yet also the most densely populated of the six administrative districts of Israel, with a population of 1.35 million residents. It is 98.9% Jewish and 1.10% Arab.

There are six main administrative districts of Israel, known in Hebrew as mekhozot and in Arabic as mintaqah. There are also fifteen subdistricts of Israel, known in Hebrew nafot and in Arabic as qadaa. Each subdistrict is further divided into natural regions, which in turn are further divided into council-level divisions: whether they might be cities, municipalities, or regional councils.
