Villages The villages of Greenland are the smallest dwelling places within municipalities. The population is more sparse in comparison to towns, usually from under 100 and up to over 600 inhabitants. The means of subsistence in such places is generally the same: hunting and fishing. Today, there are approximately 100 villages throughout Greenland. The Municipality of Upernavik has the largest number of villages - 11 in all. Village councils are elected; they carry out the tasks delegated to them by the board of governors from the town councils. The village council can recommend its own policies to the board of governors, which, as far as possible deal with issues concerning the village where they reside. |
