Night View Of Kuwait #dailykuwait #ranaqaisershahzad
Kuwait is divided into six governorates, and in each there are several areas (Arabic: مناطِق).
Areas are much less commonly called by other names such as districts or towns. However they are commonly known inside the English-speaking community in Kuwait as and are officially translated to areas.[1][2][3][4] The Arabic word for area, Mintaqah منطقة can mean both mean area and region.[5][6] Areas are further subdivided into blocks, each of which is refereed by to a number. All blocks are divided into streets شوارع (singular شارع šāriʿ). However, some areas may be further subdivided into جادات Jaddāt (singular جادة Jadda), which might be translated to avenue or lane.
Each area in Kuwait has an official governmental facility called co-op society or just society (Arabic: جمعية). For example, in Surra, it's called Surra Co-op Society. Societies are mainly supermarkets that provide foods and produces, and they may take part in maintaining some on the areas' landmarks like parks and schools, but they're not legally obliged to. Societies have elected members who manage them. Only residents of the area can vote for their society membership.
