The majority of the population speaks French and Tahitian (co-official with French throughout French Polynesia).

Administratively, the Windward Islands form the administrative subdivision of the Windward Islands (''la subdivision administrative des Îles du Vent''), one of French Polynesia 's five administrative subdivisions (''subdivision administratives''). Geographically, the administrative subdivision of the Windward Islands (''la subdivision administrative des Îles du Vent'') is identical with the electoral circumscription of the Windward Islands (''circonscription des Îles du Vent''), one of French Polynesia 's 6 electoral districts/circumscriptions (''circonsriptions électorales'') for the Assembly Of French Polynesia (see also Politics Of French Polynesia ).
