Properties in region Plovdiv

Plovdiv is the second-largest city in Bulgaria after Sofia, with a population of 343,662.It is the administrative centre of Plovdiv Province in southern Bulgaria, as well as the largest and most important city of the historical region of Upper (or Northern) Thrace, famous for its ancient and diverse culture and millennial history. Plovdiv is located on the banks of the Maritsa River in the central part of Upper Thrace. The surrounding countryside is sparsely populated and bare, yet the city itself is particularly striking, since it, like Rome, is nestled in between seven hills. Tourists, however, are likely to count only six of those, as one of hills was virtually destroyed at the beginning of the 1900s, and there is only a small outcrop of rock left to show where it once stood.

The Old Plovdiv nowadays is an original living museum, an architectural phenomenon with many of the houses of those times' most prominent bulgarians turned into museums, galleries hosting various art exhibitions, festivals and biennials, and even tourist dormitories. Plovdiv is center of the Plovdiv Region whose area is six thousand square kilometers. This is 5, 4 % of the total territory of Bulgaria. The region comprises the central part of South Bulgaria and is divided into 16 municipalities.

There are 730 thousand people living in Plovdiv Region, which is 9 % of the population of Bulgaria. The proportion of the town-village population is 71, 2:28, 8 - a high urbanization ratio. Important international routes pass through Plovdiv, which since time immemorial connect the East with Europe, the Baltic with the Mediterranean, and Black Sea with Adriatic Sea. The six rock hills give to the city a picturesque beauty that is second to none. Plovdiv's junction location and the rich cultural and historic heritage have long ago determined the city as a cultural, commerce, communication and tourist center.

The population of Plovdiv City is about 500 000 people. The labor force is about 230 000 people. Administratively Plovdiv is community with six municipalities whose mayors are elected by the Municipality Council. The 51-member "Local Parliament" - the Municipality Council and the Mayor of the Municipality are directly elected. The functional system of the municipality consists of Mayor and his deputies. Each of the deputies heads directorate - in Plovdiv they are six. There are also Principal Architect, Municipality administration - divided into directorates and a Secretary of the Municipality. They are all elected for a four years term. The local elections are held every four years and normally do not coincide with the presidential and parliamentary elections.
