About
Kotsiubynske is a settlement in Kyiv Oblast surrounded by the territory of the city of Kyiv. Forests around it and its association with the writer Mykhailo Kotsiubynsky are central to its identity.
Notes
Not Mykhailo-Kotsiubynske in Chernihiv Oblast. The modern Kyiv neighbourhood Bilychi must be distinguished from this renamed settlement. The municipal strategy describes the 1941 establishment from part of Bilychi territory; former-name references should not imply that all historical Bilychi became Kotsiubynske.
