Geography[edit]

Alexeyevsky District sits on the eastern edge of Belgorod Oblast, on the border with Voronezh Oblast. It is bordered on the south by Veydelevsky District and Roveskoy District, on the west by Krasnogvardeysky District, on the north by Krasnensky District, and on the east by three districts in Voronezh Oblast: Kamensky District, Olhovatsky District, and Ostrogozhsky District. The administrative center of the district is the town of Alexeyevka, which occupies 40 square kilometres (15 sq mi) in the north-central region of the district (of which the town itself is not part).^[11] the district is 300 kilometres (190 mi) east of the city of Belgorod.

The terrain is steppe and hilly plain; the district lies on the southeast edge of the Central Russian Upland. The two main rivers through the district are the Tikhaya Sosna River, which runs northeast into Voronezh Oblast and into the Don River basin, and the Chyornaya Kalitva River, another right tributary of the Don. Because it is in Central Black Earth area, Alexeyevsky has soil and climate suited to agriculture.

Administrative and municipal status[edit]

As a municipal division, the district is incorporated as Alexeyevsky Municipal District, with the town of oblast significance of Alexeyevka being incorporated within it as Alexeyevka Urban Settlement.^[7]
