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.
