This is a list of Armenian ethnic enclaves, containing cities, districts, and neighborhoods with predominantly Armenian population, or are associated with Armenian culture, either currently or historically.[lower-alpha 1] Most numbers are estimates by Armenian (and non-Armenian) organizations and media, because many countries simply do not collect data on ethnicity.
