Staromykhailivka

Staromykhailivka is a settlement in Donetsk Hromada that extends along the Lozova River valley. The location sits at approximately 176 meters elevation and functions as a residential area in close proximity to Donetsk city.

The settlement was founded in 1747 by Mykhailo Motsahor and developed as a community in the Donetsk region. Since 2014, the location experienced several administrative and territorial shifts.

The settlement reflects traditional Ukrainian agricultural practices while maintaining characteristics of both rural and urban development patterns.

The settlement connects to Donetsk city through the Abakumova neighborhood and serves visitors as a residential area with basic local services. The postal code 85636 helps with orientation and sending correspondence to the area.

Ukrainian administrative reforms eliminated the urban-type settlement classification, reclassifying locations like this one as rural areas. This legal transformation changed not the physical structure or appearance of the location but only its formal status.
