history
The village was established in 1930 as a result of the collectivization of nomadic shepherds, who settled on the site of the present location and formed two kolkhozes , which were called "First May" ( Russian Первое мая ) and "New Life" ( Russian Новая жизнь ). As a result, the place grew and a school and a kindergarten were built. In 1960 the two kolkhozes were merged into one kolkhoz named "Anjuiski". On March 15, 1960 Anjuisk Ostrownoje replaced as the seat of the Rajon Vostochnoi Tundry ("Rajon of the Eastern Tundra"). However, Anjuisk did not keep the status of Rajonshauptort long. On August 2, 1961, the seat of the Rajon was moved to the rapidly growing Bilibino , later the name was changed to Bilibinski rajon after the main town . A milk-producing company was established in Anjuisk in the 1980s.
