Does New York City Have Villages? No—It Has Five Boroughs

New York City has zero villages. It's composed of five boroughs, each coextensive with a county:

• Manhattan (New York County)
• The Bronx (Bronx County)
• Brooklyn (Kings County)
• Queens (Queens County)
• Staten Island (Richmond County)

In New York State, a "village" is an incorporated municipality within a town (e.g., Scarsdale, Port Jefferson). NYC's charter eliminated towns and villages within its boundaries in 1898 (consolidation). Neighborhoods like Greenwich Village, East Village, or West Village are informal names, not legal entities.

So: 5 boroughs, 59 community districts, hundreds of neighborhoods, 0 villages.
