Florence is divided into 5 districts. Each one of these districts has a certain level of independence and manages its own local services, depending on the program of the central Local Government in Florence. The districts are in charge of their own public works such as maintenance work on buildings, dealing with uninhabited buildings, locally run social services and the local education service. They do all this in accordance with regulations set by Florence’s central Local Government.
