Boryspil Raion (Ukrainian: Бориспільський район, romanized: Boryspil's'kyi raion) is an administrative raion (district) in east-central Kyiv Oblast of Ukraine. Its administrative center is the city of Boryspil. Population: 203,154 (2022 estimate).[1]

On 18 July 2020, as part of the administrative reform of Ukraine, the number of raions of Kyiv Oblast was reduced to seven, and the area of Boryspil Raion was significantly expanded. Two abolished raions, Pereiaslav-Khmelnytskyi and Yahotyn Raions, as well as the cities of Boryspil and Pereiaslav, which were previously incorporated as cities of oblast significance and did not belong to the raion, were merged into Boryspil Raion.[2][3] The area of the raion before the reform was 146 square kilometres (56 sq mi). The January 2020 estimate of the raion population was 53,619 (2020 est.).[4]

Geography

The Boryspil raion is located in the east-central area of the Kyiv Oblast, and has a total area of 146 km2.

On the raion's southern border flows the Dnieper River (Dnipro). Near the river, the raion's lowest elevation points are located. Other rivers that flow through the raion include: the left tributaries of the Dnieper: Pavlivka, Mlen, Ikva, and the right tributaries of the Trubizh River: Bochechky, Karan', Vohnyscha, Krasylivka, Al'ta, and Il'tytsia. All of the raion's rivers flow through the low-elevation territory, making all of the rivers flow more slowly. The rivers take their sources from winter snowfalls and seasonal rains. On the southernmost border of the raion is the Kaniv Reservoir, which provides electric supply to nearby areas.

Forests cover about 150 km2 of the raion's 146 km2 area.

Demographics

The Boryspil raion's total population is 53,483, which includes 23,400 males, and 30,080 females. The number of pensioners totals 16,300, about 33.6% of the total population of the raion. The density of the raion's population is 364 p/km2.

The national ethnic composition is: Ukrainians (95.2%), Russians (3.8%), Belarusians (0.3%) and Moldovans (0.1%).

Culture

Within the Boryspil raion operates a musical school for children (in the village of Schastlyve), a school of art (in the village of Velyka Oleksandrivka) Also, a couple of educational schools operate on the territory of the raion:

  • Institute of Cloning and Genetics of Animals (Ukrainian Academy of Agriculture);
  • Central science-laboratory for experiments with water and ground soil (Institute of Hydrotechno, UAAN).
