Situation in Russia

Location in Amur Oblast

Novoraitschichinsk ( Russian: Новорайчи́хинск ) is an urban-type settlement in Amur Oblast ( Russia ) with 2143 inhabitants (as of October 14, 2010).

geography

The settlement Ort is a good 150 km as the crow flies east-southeast of the Blagoveschensk Oblast Administrative Center and a good 10 km west of Raichichinsk in the hill country that borders the Seja-Bureja plain in the east. It is located on the right bank of the Kiwda , a right tributary of the Bureja .

Novoraitschichinsk belongs to the urban district Progress and is about 10 km to the northwest from its administrative seat, the urban-type Progress settlement .

history

The place was founded in 1946 in the Raitschichinsk coal mining area as a miners' settlement. In 1956 it was given urban-type settlement status. The name means "New Raichichinsk" and refers to Raichichinsk, which was founded in 1932 and has had town charter since 1944. Since its peak in the 1940s to 1960s, coal mining has experienced a continuous decline, especially from the early 1990s, and as a result, the population of the place fell significantly. After Novoraitschichinsk was initially subordinate to the administration of the Raichichinsk City Council, it was spun off into an independent urban district as part of the administrative reform in Russia in 2005 with Progress.
