Blitar Regency is a regency in East Java, Indonesia. It covers an area of 1,558.79 km2 and had a population of 1,116,639 at the 2010 Census[1] and 1,223,745 at the 2020 Census;[2] the official estimate as at mid 2022 was 1,239,565 (comprising 622,802 males and 616,763 females).[3] These figures exclude Blitar city, which is now a separate administrative entity, enclaved within the regency but completely independent from it.

History
Blitar Regency as an administrative area is believed to be established in 5 August 1324 AD, during the reign of King Jayanegara (1309-1328).[5]
Administrative districts
Blitar Regency (excluding the city) is divided into twenty-two districts (kecamatan), tabulated below with their areas and their population totals from the 2010 Census[1] and the 2020 Census,[2] together with the official estimates as at mid 2022.[3] The table also includes the number of administrative villages in each district (totaling 220 rural desa and 28 urban kelurahan), and its postal codes. The districts are in each case named after their administrative centre; they are grouped into southern and northern sectors, which have no administrative or legal significance, but highlight the much lower density in the south of the regency (adjoining the sea) compared with the north (centred on Blitar city).
