Novouzensky District
human settlement in Russia
Novouzensky District (Russian: Новоузе́нский райо́н) is an administrative and municipal district (raion), one of the thirty-eight in Saratov Oblast, Russia. It is located in the southeast of the oblast. The area of the district is 4,100 square kilometers (1,600 sq mi). Its administrative center is the town of Novouzensk. As of the 2010 Census, the total population of the district was 32,248, with the population of Novouzensk accounting for 52.8% of that number.
History
The district was established in 1928 within Pugachyov Okrug of Lower Volga Krai. When okrugs were abolished in 1930, it was subordinated directly to Lower Volga Krai. In 1934, when Lower Volga Krai was split into Saratov and Stalingrad Krais, the district remained a part of the former. In 1936, Saratov Krai was transformed into modern Saratov Oblast, and the district has remained a part of it ever since.

This brief starts where responsible research should: with the source description of “Novouzensky District” as human settlement in Russia. Everything that follows is an evidence route, not borrowed authority.
Why this record matters
The subject matters to the general reference register because the source frames it as human settlement in Russia. Its deeper value depends on whether names, dates, institutions and citations support that framing.
The citation trail is more important than the brevity of the summary: it shows where individual claims can be examined in context. The source revision retrieved here is dated Sep 14, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q1654646. The first chronological checks are 2010, 1928, 1930 and 1934.
Overview language is designed for orientation and should not be treated as a substitute for the evidence cited beneath it. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
