Kavkazsky District (Russian: Кавка́зский райо́н) is an administrative district (raion), one of the thirty-eight in Krasnodar Krai, Russia.[1] As a municipal division, it is incorporated as Kavkazsky Municipal District.[2] It is located in the east of the krai. The area of the district is 1,142 square kilometers (441 sq mi). Its administrative center is the rural locality (a stanitsa) of Kavkazskaya.[1] Population: 44,445(2010 Census);[3] 45,343(2002 Census);[7] 43,625(1989 Census).[8] The population of Kavkazskaya accounts for 25.1% of the district's total population.[3]

History

The district was established on June 2, 1924 as Kropotkinsky District (Кропоткинский район), with the administrative center in the stanitsa of Kavkazskaya.[6] It was given its present name on January 22, 1944.[6] In 1956, the administrative center of the district was transferred to the town of Kropotkin.[6] On February 1, 1963, the district was transformed into a rural district with the administrative center in the town of Gulkevichi.[6] On January 12, 1965, this transformation was reverted.[6] On October 20, 1980, the stanitsa of Kavkazskaya became the administrative center again.[6]

Administrative and municipal status

Within the framework of administrative divisions, the town of Kropotkin is not a part of the district and is incorporated separately.[1] As a municipal division, however, Kropotkin is incorporated within Kavkazsky Municipal District as Kropotkinskoye Urban Settlement and serves as the municipal district's administrative center.[2]
