Three abolished raions, Pechenihy, Vovchansk, and Zmiiv Raions, as well as the city of Chuhuiv, which was previously incorporated as a city of oblast significance and did not belong to the raion, were merged into Chuhuiv Raion.[3][4][5] The January 2020 estimate of the raion population was 45,362 (2020 est.).[6]
