Tamil Nadu has a very dispersed pattern of urbanisation with municipalities in virtually every District. The boundaries of Chennai District are contiguous with the Chennai Municipal Corporation. However, the Chennai Metropolitan Area is a larger area which includes several municipalities and town panchayats. The spatial distribution (by district) of the six corporations, 104 municipalities, and 611 town panchayats, clearly illustrates that urbanization is not limited to anyone part of the State.
