Map of Suriname Highlighting the district of Paramaribo in Suriname.

Summary[edit]

Description
English: The Paramaribo city district is located in the north between 15.80° and 5.91° N and in the

west between 55.09° and 55.23° W and bordered on the north by the Atlantic Ocean, east to the Commewijne district and west and south to the Wanica district. Paramaribo, the capital of the Republic of Suriname, is located on the left bank of the Suriname river. On the one hand, this location offers favorable factors for the settlement of port facilities because of the shipping channel in the outer bend.

The district is divided into 12 administrative areas and has a total area of 183 km2. The administrative areas are: Blauwgrond, Rainville, Munderbuiten, Centrum, Beekhuizen, Weg naar Zee, Welgelegen, Tammenga, Flora, Latour, Pontbuiten, Livorno

The administrative organization of the Paramaribo urban district is based on two administrative areas, namely Paramaribo North-East and Paramaribo South-West; A District Commissioner has been appointed for each of these administrative units.

Nederlands: Het stadsdistrict Paramaribo is in het noorden gelegen tussen de 15,80° en 5,91° NB en in het

westen tussen de 55,09° en 55,23° WL en grenst ten noorden aan de Atlantische Oceaan, ten oosten aan het district Commewijne en ten westen en ten zuiden aan het district Wanica. Paramaribo, de hoofdstad van de Republiek Suriname, is gelegen aan de linkeroever van de Surinamerivier. Deze locatie biedt enerzijds gunstige factoren voor de afwikkeling van havenfaciliteiten vanwege de vaargeul in de buitenbocht.

Het district is onderverdeeld in 12 administratieve ressorten en heeft een totale oppervlakte van 183 km2. De administratieve ressorten zijn: Blauwgrond, Rainville, Munderbuiten, Centrum, Beekhuizen, Weg naar Zee, Welgelegen, Tammenga, Flora, Latour, Pontbuiten, Livorno

De bestuurlijke organisatie van het stadsdistrict Paramaribo geschiedt vanuit twee bestuursressorten, te weten Paramaribo Noord-Oost en Paramaribo Zuid-West; voor elk van deze bestuurseenheden is een Districtscommissaris aangesteld.
