Llangefni (meaning "church on the River Cefni") is the county town of Anglesey in Wales and contains the principal offices of the Isle of Anglesey County Council. United Kingdom Census 2011 recorded Llangefni's population as 5,116 people, making it the second largest settlement in the county.[1] The community includes the village of Rhosmeirch.
