After the reorganization of the districts in AP in April 2022, Prakasam (14,322 sq km) in terms of area and Sri Potti Sriramulu Nellore district (24.697 lakhs) in terms of population emerged as large districts. The two districts are large with 8 constituencies and 38 zones. Parvathipuram Manyam district is the smallest district with a small area (3,659 sq km) and a small population (9.253 lakhs). There are only three constituencies in Alluri Sitaramaraj district. There are 3 to 8 constituencies in each district.

Formed as a single urban district, Visakhapatnam district has only 11 zones and a population of 19.595 lakhs. Each district has a population of 9.253 lakhs to 24.5 lakhs.
