It is located in the eastern part of the peninsula. The population of the district speaks 86% Russian, 9% Ukrainian, and 5% Other. The administrative centre of Lenine Raion is the urban-type settlement of Lenine. Population: 61,143 (2014 Census).[1]

Populated places include: Cheliadinove, Ohon'ky, Kostyrine, Naberezhne, Frontove, Yehorove, and Zavitne

Notes

The renaming has been effected by Ukraine's decommunization laws, but as Crimea is outside of Ukrainian control, this decision has had little practical effect.
