Population


The canton is inhabited by around 305,000 people (2001 est.), mostly ethnic Bosniaks. There are also some Serbs who mostly live in the municipality of Bosanski Petrovac.

Municipalities


It is divided into municipalities (usually eponymous with towns) of Bihać, Bosanska Krupa, Bosanski Petrovac, Bužim, Cazin, Ključ, Sanski Most and Velika Kladuša.

Traffic


Due to the proximity to Croatia and that country's peculiar shape, various important traffic lines between Zagreb and the Adriatic traverse the Una-Sana canton, such as the railway line Bosanski Novi — Bihać — Knin. The largest airport of Željava is located near Bihać and is located right on the Croatian border.
