In The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (LDS Church), an area is an administrative unit which typically is composed of multiple stakes and missions. These areas are the primary church administrative unit between individual stakes or missions and the church as a whole.

The areas as they now exist were formed in January 1984.[1] Prior to that time, general authorities served as "area supervisors" and at times resided outside of Salt Lake City.[2] In 1984, 13 initial areas were created; by 1992 there were 22, and by early 2007 there were 31. As of August 2020 there are 22 areas.[3][4]
Administration
Until 2003, each area had a president and two counselors, all of whom were typically general authorities (area seventies were sometimes asked to be counselors). This three-man body was known as the area presidency. In that year, the church eliminated area presidencies for areas located in the United States and Canada, which were all then placed under the direct supervision of a member of the Presidency of the Seventy, thus freeing more general authorities from specific area assignments. Since these areas were previously administered by area presidencies located at church headquarters in Salt Lake City, the administrative change was not as drastic as it might seem.
In April 2018, the church announced that, effective August 1 of that year, areas in the United States and Canada would once again be supervised by a three-man presidency. This enables the Presidency of the Seventy to more fully assist the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles in their duties, and to fill other assignments as needed.[5]
In 2019, church leaders clarified that the 10 North American areas would be merged into six (with the Idaho Area merging into the North America Central Area; the North America Northwest Area merging into the North America West Area; and the Utah North, Utah Salt Lake City, and Utah South areas merging into a single Utah Area.[6]
Also in 2019, a structural change occurred in the administration of the Middle East/Africa North Area. In prior years, two general authorities based at church headquarters were assigned oversight for the area. However, beginning in August 2019, a three-man area presidency was established to oversee the area. While the president and first counselor are currently general authorities who serve from church headquarters, the second counselor is an area seventy who lives and works within the area's boundaries.
The areas outside the United States and Canada continue to be governed by area presidencies that are typically composed of general authorities and area seventies. Rather than living in Salt Lake City, the area presidency members in these areas usually reside in a headquarters city that is located within the geographic boundaries of the area. Area seventies who serve in the area presidencies reside in their own homes, which may or may not be in the area headquarters city.
As of August 2020, the church has 16 areas outside North America and six areas inside North America, for a total of 22, with area presidencies generally consisting of general authorities.[7] Area assignments are typically announced in the spring each year, with changes effective on August 1 of that year.[8]

The following statistics are current as of August 1, 2019, and are taken from the LDS Church Growth Blog, statistical profiles on cumorah.com, and the Facts and Statistics page of the Church's official website (www.churchofjesuschrist.org). Ward and branch totals and membership numbers were last updated in 2015.
^Although area seventies may serve in an area presidency. In limited cases in the past, area seventies have comprised the whole presidency, but in recent years only a few area seventies have served in an area presidency. As of August 2019, the church has two area seventies serving in area presidencies: the second counselors in the Europe East and Middle East/Africa North areas.
^For several years, the assignments were effective on August 15, but August 1 has been the effective date since 2007.
^As a result of McCune's transfer to the Asia North Area Presidency, Johnson was called to serve in this area presidency.
^When the August 2020 area leadership assignments were originally announced, the assignment list noted that Evan A. Schmutz would be Second Counselor in this area presidency. Due to other necessary changes, Alliaud is now serving in that capacity.
^Although the 2020 area leadership assignments indicated that Ruben V. Alliaud would serve as Second Counselor in this area presidency, that assignment was subsequently shifted to Bragg, as verified here.
^When the 2020 area leadership assignments were announced, Mark A. Bragg had been listed as the First Counselor in this area presidency. That assignment was subsequently transferred to Schmutz, as verified here and here.
