During the Dutch colonial era it was a center of trade and other activities. After the independence of the Republic of Indonesia on 17 August 1945 the Deli Kingdom became part of the Deli Serdang Regency, a combination of the Deli Sultanate and the Serdang Sultanate. The subsequent rapid growth of the city of Medan as the capital of North Sumatra Province and as a center of government, trade and industry led to an expansion of the city boundaries, so that in 1974 most of the villages in Labuhan Deli District became part of the Medan City administration. The widely-separated remaining parts of the district contain what was left over after the expansion of the city, together with two much more rural villages (Telaga Tujuh and Karang Gading) in the far north of the regency. ==Villages== From 1974 Labuhan Deli District consisted of four villages (''desa''), namely Helvetia Village, Pematang Johar Village, Telaga Tujuh Village and Karang Gading Village. Then in 1995 Helvetia Village was divided into two villages, namely Manunggal and Helvetia Villages, so that the district now consists of five villages (''desa''), listed below with their areas and their populations at the 2010 CensusBiro Pusat Statistik, Jakarta, 2011. and the 2020 Census,Biro Pusat Statistik, Jakarta, 2021. together with their official estimates of population as at mid 2024.Badan Pusat Statistik, Jakarta, 26 September 2025, ''Kecamatan Labuhan Deli Dalam Angka 2025'' (Katalog-BPS 1102001.1212250. {| class="sortable wikitable" |- !
