#REDIRECT [[Parishes and dependencies of Antigua and Barbuda#Parish capitals]]
{{Short description|none}}
There are seven capitals in [[Antigua and Barbuda]]. One of these, [[St. John's, Antigua and Barbuda|St. John's]], serves as the national seat of government. Each parish capital contains the parish church, while the capital of Barbuda contains the administrative offices of the [[Barbuda Council]]. Most capitals have town status, however, [[Codrington, Barbuda|Codrington]] is a village, [[Fitches Creek]] is an estate, and St. John's is the sole city in the country.


{{Rcat shell|
With the exception of St. John's and Codrington, the majority of parish/dependency capitals are not the largest settlements in the parish. [[Parham, Antigua and Barbuda|Parham]] is the second-largest city in [[Saint Peter, Antigua and Barbuda|Saint Peter]]; that being said, it would be the largest if the population of [[All Saints, Antigua and Barbuda|All Saints]]—which is spread across three parishes—were not included. Nonetheless, compared to Parham, the population of the sector of All Saints in Saint Peter is considerably higher.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Ethnicity in All Saints Northeast |url=https://redatam.org/binatg/RpWebUtilities.exe/reporte.pdf?LFN=RpBases%5CTempo%5C36099%5C~tmp_3609961.pdf |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20231105202121/https://redatam.org/binatg/RpWebUtilities.exe/reporte.pdf?LFN=RpBases%5CTempo%5C36099%5C~tmp_3609961.pdf |archive-date=2023-11-05 |access-date=2023-11-05}}</ref>'''<ref name=":1" />'''
