geography

Krčedin is about 35 km south of Novi Sad on the right bank of the Danube ; the settlement does not directly border the river. However, some country houses outside the actual village in the northern part of the district overlook the river.

Ethnic Serbs make up the majority in Krčedin, but there is also a larger minority of Roma who live concentrated in the Salajka district .

On March 20, 2003, the Novi Sad police found 5.4 kg of heroin belonging to the so-called Zemun clan in one of these holiday homes .

The economy is dominated by agriculture, although the residents are increasingly working in the surrounding cities.

The highway from Novi Sad to Belgrade ( European route 75 ), which runs west of the village, has an exit for Krčedin and the neighboring village of Beška, 3 km away .
