Kamyzyaksky District (Russian: Камызя́кский райо́н; Kazakh: Құмөзек ауданы, Kazakh: Qumózek aýdany) is an administrative[1] and municipal[2] district (raion), one of the eleven in Astrakhan Oblast, Russia. It is located in the south of the oblast. The area of the district is 3493km2.[3] Its administrative center is the town of Kamyzyak. As of the 2010 Census, the total population of the district was 48,647, with the population of Kamyzyak accounting for 33.5% of that number.
The district was established on July 14, 1925 when Astrakhan Governorate's administrative-territorial system was changed from uyezds and volosts to districts and rural communities.[4] In May 1944, a part of the district's territory was transferred to Travinsky and Zelenginsky Districts. When Travinsky District was abolished in 1963, its territory was merged into Kamyzyaksky District.
