Administrative and municipal status
Within the framework of administrative divisions, Engelssky District is one of the thirty-eight in the oblast.[1] The city of Engels serves as its administrative center,[2] despite being incorporated separately as a city under oblast jurisdiction—an administrative unit with the status equal to that of the districts (and which, in addition to Engels, also includes four rural localities).[10]
As a municipal division, the district is incorporated as Engelssky Municipal District,[7] with Engels City Under Oblast Jurisdiction and two rural localities administratively subordinated to Engelssky District being incorporated within it as Engels Urban Settlement.[8]
