One administrative district has responsibility for providing certain services for the municipal parts. Those services include providing business licenses, identity cards and passports.

s. The mayor of the Capital City of Prague is known as the ''primátor'', which is sometimes translated into English as "lord mayor" (even though the Czech title carries no connotations of nobility). Since 1960, Prague has been divided into 10 municipal districts. Those 10 districts are still used for addressing and transportation purposes and, for example, the organisation of courts and prosecutions.

s usually reflects the name of a municipal district and additionally add the name of the cadastral area ( cs, katastrální území). Thus, a sign in Kbely will say "Praha 9-Kbely," not "Praha 19." Prague residents are much more likely to use the name of a cadastral area, than the name of an administrative district in everyday communication.

, Královice, Nedvězí Notes: * In 2001, the Czech government ordered that every municipal district that serves an entire administrative district should be named for the administrative district that it serves. Thus, the municipal districts of Radotín, Řepy, Letňany, Kbely, Horní Počernice, Újezd nad Lesy and Uhříněves are now Prague 16 through 22, respectively. The old names remain as the names of cadastral areas. * All named districts officially begin with "Prague-", or "''Praha-''" in Czech. Thus, for example, the official name of Kunratice is "Prague-Kunratice" or ''"Praha-Kunratice"''.

complexes are Jižní Město ("South City"), Severní Město ("North City") and Jihozápadní Město ("Southwest City"), all of which consist of partial housing estates. Most of Prague's panelák estates that were built between the 1960s and 1980s have names that incorporate the Czech word ''sídliště'', which refers to a post-World War 2 eastern bloc housing estate. Many local names originated from names of historic villages in today's Prague area.
