Bridgend County Borough is a county borough in the south-east of Wales. It is one of the 22 principal areas of Wales.
Communities are the lowest tier of local government in Wales. Unlike English counties, which often contain unparished areas, all Welsh principal areas are entirely divided into communities.
There are 20 communities in Bridgend County Borough, with Ogmore Valley being the largest and Porthcawl the most populated. All of them have a community council, with four calling themselves town councils in Bridgend, Maesteg, Pencoed and Porthcawl.
