Geography
Kostromskoy District is located on the western edge of Kostroma Oblast, on the border with Yaroslavl Oblast. The Volga River runs from west to east through the southern section of the district, and the Kostroma River enters from the north through the Gorky Reservoir. 44% of the district is in agricultural production, 32% is forested, and about 10% is a dense network of lakes, swamps, and rivers. Kostromskoy District surrounds the regional city of Kostroma, and is 270 km northeast of Moscow. The area measures 80 km (north-south), and 40 km (west-east); total area is 2,032 km2 (about 3% of Kostroma Oblast). The administrative center is the town of Kostroma.[2]
The district is bordered on the north by Buysky District, on the east by Susaninsky District, Sudislavsky, and Krasnoselsky District; and on the south by Nerekhtsky District.
History
Kostromskoy District was formally created in 1928 out of Kostroma Uyezd. In 1929 it became part of Ivanovo Industrial Oblast. In 1932 it was liquidated and attached to the City of Kostroma, then reconstituted in 1935. It became part of Yaroslavl Oblast in 1936, before finally becoming part of Kostroma Oblast in 1944.
Administrative and municipal status
Within the framework of administrative divisions, Kostromskoy District is one of the twenty-four in the oblast.[1] The city of Kostroma serves as its administrative center, despite being incorporated separately as a city of oblast significance—an administrative unit with the status equal to that of the districts.[1]
As a municipal division, the district is incorporated as Kostromskoy Municipal District.[6] The city of oblast significance of Kostroma is incorporated separately from the district as Kostroma Urban Okrug.[6]
