Sanchursky District, Municipal okrug in Kirov Oblast, Russia.
Sanchursky District is a municipal okrug in Kirov Oblast featuring mixed landscapes of forests and rivers across its southwestern territory. It comprises one urban settlement and six rural districts connected by road networks.
The district was established in July 1929 and went through several administrative changes under different regional designations. It eventually became part of the present-day Kirov Oblast.
The district maintains traditional Russian customs in its communities, with local celebrations shaping life in the administrative town of Sanchursk. Residents preserve their connection to rural heritage across the surrounding villages.
The district is accessible via road networks connecting its communities and neighboring regions. When planning a visit, consider the rural setting and distances between settlements.
The population is nearly evenly split between urban and rural areas, a rare balance for the region. This reflects the economic importance of both the town and countryside areas.
