A liquid crystal display device includes first and second substrates, gate and data lines formed on the first substrate and crossing each other to define a pixel region, a first common electrode in a first part of the pixel region, the first common electrode having a plate shape, a plurality of first pixel electrodes directly over the first common electrode and at a first fixed interval in the first part of the pixel region, a second pixel electrode alternately arranged with a second common electrode at a second fixed interval in a second part of the pixel region, and a layer of liquid crystal molecules between the first and second substrates.
