Metropolitan cities are a relatively recent form of territorial authority in Italy, introduced to replace provinces in certain major urban areas. The aim of these entities is to ensure more efficient management of public services, improve spatial planning, and promote economic and social development within the metropolitan area.

Each metropolitan city includes a principal city (the central city) and the surrounding municipalities. Metropolitan cities enjoy greater autonomy compared to provinces, particularly in areas such as infrastructure, transportation, waste management, and economic development.
