Kamyzyaksky District

Kamyzyaksky District spans 3,493 square kilometers across the southern region of Astrakhan Oblast, featuring urban settlements and rural localities along the Volga Delta.

The district emerged through administrative reforms in 1925, when Astrakhan Governorate transitioned from uyezds and volosts to a new territorial structure.

The district preserves traditional fishing practices and agricultural methods that reflect the heritage of Russian, Kazakh, and other ethnic communities in the region.

The district maintains a network of educational institutions, medical facilities, and administrative services across its 47 settlements, serving a population of 48,647 residents.

Located at zero meters above sea level, the district contains multiple waterways from the Volga Delta, creating a network of channels used for transportation.
