The village of Pain Hular was converted to a city in 2011.[7]

In 2012, Rudpey-ye Gharbi Rural District was created in Rudpey District, and Rudpey-ye Shomali Rural District was separated from it in the formation of Rudpey-ye Shomali District, which included the new Farahabad-e Jonubi Rural District.[8]

The village of Farahabad was converted to a city in 2018,[9] and the village of Akand became a city in 2020.[10]
