Around three quarters of the population are Komi (Syrians) , the rest are predominantly ethnic Russians .

history

The village was first mentioned in 1646 and was probably founded towards the end of the 1630s. The place name refers to the location at the mouth of the Kulomju: ust- from Russian ustje for "mouth" (also the ending -din in the Komi language), while the river name is probably of Obugrian origin and means "fish river"; Khanty and Mansi settled in the area west of the Urals before the 17th century. Ust-Kulom initially belonged to the Ujesd Jarensk , from 1780 to the newly formed Ujesd Ust-Syssolsk (today Syktywkar ) of the governorship of Vologda , from 1796 of the Vologda governorate and became the seat of a Volost . At times, the alternative name Petropawlowskoje after the church of the place consecrated to the apostles Peter and Paul (Russian Pjotr ​​i Pawel ) was in use.

In 1918 the Ujesd came to the newly designated Northern Dvina Governorate (Severo-Dvinskaya gubernija), on August 22, 1921 to the Komi Autonomous Oblast (Syrian) . This was divided into four Ujesde in 1922, the southeast of these with its seat in Ust-Kulom. With the introduction of the Rajon division on July 15, 1929, the Ust-Kulomski rajon was created; From December 5, 1936 he was part of the ASSR of the Komi , from which today's republic emerged.
