Abadi (rural locality)
Abadi is a type of rural locality found primarily in Indonesia. The term "abadi" itself translates to "eternal" or "everlasting" in Indonesian, although the specific historical connection between the name and the settlement type is not always readily apparent.
Rural localities designated as "abadi" generally fall under the administrative category of desa, which translates to "village." The classification of a specific desa as "abadi" may reflect a perceived historical importance or unique characteristic, though specific criteria are not consistently documented across all regions. It is important to note that not all desa are designated as abadi.
The size, population, and economic activity of an abadi can vary significantly. They can range from small farming communities to larger settlements with a mix of agricultural and commercial activities.
For detailed information on specific abadi, it is necessary to consult local government records and regional geographical data. The term itself provides a general indication of a rural settlement but does not inherently define its specific characteristics or administrative function beyond its village (desa) status.
