Some of the text appeared to be copyvio from here: [1], although after my editing, it appears that not much remains. I would encourage people to look with a critical eye. - FrancisTyers · 21:21, 10 June 2006 (UTC)
Does the Monrovia City Corporation have a website? What are it's boundaries? Are they the same as the boundaries for Greater Monrovia District? -- Criticalthinker ( talk) 09:47, 18 November 2008 (UTC)
It's taken over 9 years, but after digging and digging and digging, I was able to find most of the answers to my questions. It appears administratively that the district is divided into 16 zones, which are further divided into 161 communities. My question about them is whether the zones have appointed officials and if they have any official roles in administering from the national government, or if they are simply used for statistical purposes? It also appears that municipally, there are in fact local governments overlayed over these zones and communities. There appears to be 2 cities which have their own mayors and city councils, and then 10 "local authorities" (9 townships and 1 borough) that have less power than the two cities in that they seem to be mostly governed from the Ministry of Internal Affairs with the local government seeming to have an advisory role, mostly. Since there are only 12 local governments yet 16 zones, it sounds like some of the townships probably cover more than one zone or at least cover parts of multiple zones. Without a map showing this overlay, however, I have no idea. I was also unable to find the name of one zone and one township; if anyone can find out which ones I missed, please add them.
Finally, I've come to understand that the Greater Monvoria District is fairly unique in the country in that it doesn't have a district-level of governance. That all seems to have been devolved to the municipal layer and level of governance, and they are directly accountable to the County Superintendent as opposed to a district official. So, while the Monrovia City Corporation actually provides most of the services and such in the district, it is actually not the only local government in the district, which means that it's not a replacement for the government of the Greater Monvoria District, nor are the boundaries of the two entities coterminous.
With all of this nailed down, my only interest left is understanding the administrative and municipal divisions in the rest of the country outside of Greater Monrovia District (i.e. how are clans divided? who appoints the clan officials and the officials below that? When a city overlays a clan, are their two-types of local officials, or do the city mayors/councils take the place of the clan officials?), and then also seeing map of the municipal and administrative divisions within Greater Monvoria District and then seeing if there are land area statistical for the local governments and zones. -- Criticalthinker ( talk) 01:49, 2 January 2018 (UTC)
The "Geography" section appears to be visually skewered, and some text is covered by images. Can someone fix this? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.190.152.7 ( talk) 06:16, 25 February 2009 (UTC)
The city name on the info section is Albany, NY. The dot on the map shows Albany, NY as well. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 50.203.19.139 ( talk) 16:31, 6 April 2015 (UTC)

The comment(s) below were originally left at Talk:Monrovia/Comments, and are posted here for posterity. Following several discussions in past years, these subpages are now deprecated. The comments may be irrelevant or outdated; if so, please feel free to remove this section.
More info should be added to the Economy, Government, and Education section as they are only one or two sentence paragraphs. More sources should be used. -- Hdt83 Chat 22:21, 1 June 2007 (UTC) |

Is Johnsonville part of the Greater Monrovia District? - the Monrovia and Greater Monrovia District articles say so as of now. But https://www.lisgis.net/pg_img/Population%202008,%202014%20by%20County,%20District,%20Clan%20and%20Households,%20Liberia%20260914.pdf indicates that Johnsonville township is located in Commonwealth District. But to confuse further, LISGIS includes 2 communities that are seemingly part of Johnsonville in its Greater Monrovia District tally (Rock Hill and City View). -- Soman ( talk) 18:27, 14 July 2020 (UTC)
I created Communities of the Greater Monrovia District, based on https://www.lisgis.net/pg_img/Population%202008,%202014%20by%20County,%20District,%20Clan%20and%20Households,%20Liberia%20260914.pdf and http://www.electionpassport.com/files/LR/2011/Montserrado.pdf . However, there are some discrepancies.
