history
In place of the current settlement, a village with the name Baljatino was first mentioned in the 16th century . During the reign of Peter I at the beginning of the 18th century, a factory for cutting and stabbing weapons was built there (Russian: Palaschny sawod ). Towards the end of the 19th century, the factory now known as Starogorskaja or Staro-Gorkinskaja manufaktura was converted to textile production ( weaving ) and expanded considerably by the entrepreneur Polijewkt Schorygin by the beginning of the First World War ; during this time it had 2,400 employees. The modern city coat of arms, in which strips of fabric are depicted with riflemen , also point to the town-building company .
In the Soviet period, the factory was after the October Revolution named (imeni Oktjabrskoi Revolyutsii). In 1928 the place received the status of an urban-type settlement, in 1957 its current name, like the textile factory after the October Revolution.

Economy and Infrastructure
The largest company in town is still the textile factory, now under the name Tekstil-Profi , with an attached shopping center. There is also a furniture factory, a bridge-building company and telecommunications facilities. In recent years, the settlement has increasingly developed into a residential suburb of Moscow.
The M5 trunk road runs through Oktyabrsky and first leads from Moscow to Ryazan and then via Samara to Chelyabinsk . On the section near Moscow it is also referred to as Novorjasanskoje shot ("New Ryazaner Chaussee"). A siding (freight traffic only) connects the town's industrial operations with the Bykowo station six kilometers away on the Moscow - Ryazan railway line.
