How many parishes does Louisiana have?
Louisiana uses the term "parish" instead of "county" — the only US state to do so. The term was inherited from the state's French and Catholic colonial period, when ecclesiastical parishes served as local administrative units. Today Louisiana's 64 parishes are functionally identical to counties in every other state.
The largest parish by land area is Vernon Parish at 1,327 square miles, home to 45,091 residents. The most populous is East Baton Rouge Parish with 456,180 residents — a density of 1,002 people per square mile. At the other end of the scale, Tensas Parish has 3,700 residents.
Louisiana’s capital is Baton Rouge, while the largest city is New Orleans.
