Niselli (officially Nisellion, also informally pronounced with an "l", as Niseli, so it should not be confused with Niselia Lesvos) is a lowland village in Greece, in the regional unit (former Prefecture) of Imathia.[2] It is built at an average altitude of 10 meters above sea level and its population in the 2011 census was 653 inhabitants.[3]
Administrative history
Formerly Niselli was a village in the District of Imathia, Prefecture of Imathia, and was directly subordinate to the Municipality of Alexandria. With the implementation of the "Kapodistrias" Plan, Niselli was annexed to the Municipal Community of Alexandria of the Municipality of Alexandria. With the implementation of the "Kallikratis" Program on January 1, 2011, Niselli reached its current administrative affiliation, according to which it is one of the three settlements (along with the city of Alexandria and Schinas) of the Municipal community of Alexandria, which is part of the Municipal Unit of Alexandreia of the new, enlarged Municipality of Alexandria of the Regional Unit of Imathia.[4]
