cities are not part of the counties, they are independent, but
are counted at the Counties as per public administration. As a
part of the administrative reform, system of the new cities (Like
County by Right) was introduced on 1 December, 1990, when 16
county towns (Békéscsaba, Debrecen, Eger, Győr, Kaposvár,
Kecskemét, Miskolc, Nyíregyháza, Pécs, Szeged,
Székesfehérvár, Szolnok, Szombathely, Tatabánya, Veszprém,
Zalaegerszeg) and 4 bigger towns (Dunaújváros,
Hódmezővásárhely, Nagykanizsa, Sopron) became cities. Later,
on 30 October, 1994, the remaining 2 county towns (Salgótarján
and Szekszárd) were declared cities to finish this reform.
All the cities have been traditional Hungarian towns for a long
time, except Dunaújváros and Tatabánya.
In 2004, Hungary has 251 towns, 22 cities (Like County by Right)
and the capital (főváros).
