Chkalovsky (rural locality)

Chkalovsky is a common name for rural localities (selo, posyolok, derevnya, etc.) in Russia and other post-Soviet countries. These localities are typically named in honor of Valery Pavlovich Chkalov, a famous Soviet pilot and Hero of the Soviet Union. They are often associated with agriculture, aviation, or a connection to Chkalov's life and legacy.

Due to the widespread use of the name, it is essential to specify the precise administrative division (oblast, krai, republic, rayon) when referring to a particular Chkalovsky to avoid ambiguity. Without such specification, it is impossible to determine the exact location and characteristics of the locality. Each distinct Chkalovsky will have its own unique history, population, economic activity, and infrastructure. Information on a specific Chkalovsky can usually be found through official administrative databases or local government websites.
