Charodinsky District, Municipal district in Dagestan, Russia
Charodinsky District is a municipal district in the mountainous region of southern Dagestan, Russia, encompassing numerous rural settlements spread across several administrative divisions. The terrain is predominantly mountainous, and the administrative center in Tsurib coordinates local services for these communities.
The district was established as an administrative unit in 1929 and remained part of the Dagestan Autonomous Soviet Socialist Republic until the Soviet Union's dissolution. Its founding reflects the administrative reorganizations that reshaped the region during that period.
The population of 14,052 residents maintains traditional agricultural practices across thirteen rural settlements, with Tsurib serving as the administrative center.
The area is sparsely populated with rural communities, so roads are the main way to travel between settlements. Visitors should keep in mind that access can be difficult during winter months due to mountain conditions.
The district demonstrates consistent demographic changes, recording population variations from 12,614 in 1979 to 11,792 in 2002, reflecting regional migration patterns.
