Central Lampung Regency is a regency of the province of Lampung, on Sumatra, Indonesia. On 20 April 1999, two areas were separated from the original regency - the southeastern portion was split off to form a separate East Lampung Regency (including all of the regency's former sea coast), while the town of Metro was created as an independent city. The reduced regency has an area of 4,559.57 km2 and had a population of 1,170,048 people at the 2010 census[2] and 1,460,045 at the 2020 census;[3] the official estimate as at mid 2023 was 1,508,331 (comprising 769,566 males and 738,765 females).[4] The regency seat is the town of Gunung Sugih.
