Surgutsky District

Surgutsky District is a municipal district in Khanty-Mansi Autonomous Okrug covering a vast expanse of central Siberia. It encompasses several urban settlements alongside rural communities connected by regional transportation routes.

The district was created in 1924 as a regional administrative division with Surgut designated as its administrative center. However, the city of Surgut maintained separate administrative status and was not formally part of the district structure.

Russians constitute 56.4 percent of the population, with Tatars, Bashkirs, Ukrainians, and Nogais contributing to the district's demographic composition.

The area operates on UTC+5 time and is serviced by an extensive regional transportation network. Visitors should expect significant distances between settlements and should plan travel accordingly within the region.

The district's population distribution shows 69.5 percent urban residents and 30.5 percent rural inhabitants, reflecting a balanced mix of modern and traditional lifestyles.
