Kinel-Cherkassy

Background

Kinel-Cherkassy is a rural locality classified as a selo in Samara Oblast, Russia, and it serves as the administrative center of Kinel-Cherkassky District. It is also associated with Kinel-Cherkassy Rural Settlement. Census data recorded a population of 18,536 in 2002 and 17,252 in 2010, making it one of the larger rural settlements in the district.

As the district administrative center, the village has local governmental importance within the administrative structure of Samara Oblast. Its role is primarily regional and municipal rather than national, but administrative centers in Russian districts typically concentrate local governance, public services, and coordination for surrounding settlements. The available record does not indicate any direct military or diplomatic role.

Recent public references show the village remained a subject of regional administrative action in 2026, when the governor of Samara Oblast lifted quarantine restrictions there by decree. That mention indicates the locality is recognized in oblast-level governance and public health administration. Beyond this, the available information identifies it chiefly as a stable rural administrative center with continued relevance in local district affairs.
