This is a list of places in the Isle of Man. In addition to the Isle of Man itself, the Isle of Man Government administers three small neighbouring islands: the Calf of Man, St Patrick's Isle and St Michael's Isle. There are four places with official status as towns, and many villages such as Bride and Andreas, as well as smaller settlements. Traditionally the Island is divided into six sheadings, then further into seventeen parishes.
