[edit] 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.

[edit] Municipalities

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

[edit] 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.
