Kamëz (also known as Kamza, Kamëza) is a municipality in Tirana County, Albania.[2] It was formed at the 2015 local government reform by the merger of the former municipalities Kamëz and Paskuqan, that became municipal units.

History
Prior to the 1990s, Kamza was a sparsely populated and predominantly agricultural area. Following the post 1990s Albanian population movements, the area experienced massive influxes of inhabitants from all over Albania. The newly formed city is known to bear impressive street names belonging to international personalities, capital cities, and organizations.
