Uranovo

Uranovo is a settlement located in the easternmost part of Slovakia, in the Snina District of the Prešov Region. It is situated close to the Ukrainian border. Historically, it formed part of the Zemplín region.

The village is relatively small, with a predominantly rural character. Its economy is largely based on agriculture, though its proximity to the border may also influence local trade. Uranovo is characterized by rolling hills and forested areas, typical of the Carpathian foothills.

The population of Uranovo is primarily Slovak. The religious composition is largely Eastern Rite Catholic, reflecting the historical and cultural ties to the broader Carpathian region.

Uranovo faces challenges common to many rural settlements in Slovakia, including limited employment opportunities and outward migration, particularly of younger people.

Tourist interest in Uranovo is limited, but the surrounding landscape offers opportunities for hiking and nature observation. Its location near the Ukrainian border also makes it a point of entry or exit for travelers, though this is less common than larger border crossings.

Uranovo is connected to the rest of Slovakia by road. Public transportation options are available, but may be infrequent. The village lacks a railway connection.
