The oblast maintains 33 districts, 19 cities, and 17 settlements, connected by a network of roads and waterways that support industrial and agricultural activities.
The Volgograd Oblast produces energy through multiple hydroelectric stations along its rivers while maintaining extensive steppe landscapes and agricultural territories.
