Khmelnytskyi Raion (Ukrainian: Хмельницький район, Khmel'nyts'kyi raion) is one of the 20 administrative raions (a district) of the Khmelnytskyi Oblast in western Ukraine. Its administrative center is located in the city of Khmelnytskyi. Its population was 53,686 in the 2001 Ukrainian Census[1] and 679,374 (2021 est.)[2]

On 18 July 2020, as part of the administrative reform of Ukraine, the number of raions of Khmelnytskyi Oblast was reduced to three, and the area of Khmelnytskyi Raion was significantly expanded. Ten abolished raions, Derazhnia, Horodok, Krasyliv, Letychiv, Stara Syniava, Starokostiantyniv, Teofipol, Vinkivtsi, Volochysk, and Yarmolyntsi Raions, as well as the cities of Khmelnytskyi and Starokostiantyniv, which were previously incorporated as a cities of oblast significance and did not belong to the corresponding raions, were merged into Khmelnytskyi Raion.[3][4] The January 2020 estimate of the raion population was 52,955 (2020 est.)[5]

Khmelnytskyi Raion is located in the central part of Khmelnytskyi Oblast, corresponding to the modern-day boundaries of the Volhynia and Podolia historical regions. One of the main rivers that runs through the raion is the Southern Bug. Geographically, formerly Khmelnytskyi Raion completely surrounded Khmelnytskyi City Municipality forming an enclave.

Khmelnytskyi Raion is divided in a way that follows the general administrative scheme in Ukraine. Local government is also organized along a similar scheme nationwide. Consequently, raions were subdivided into councils, which were the prime level of administrative division in the country.

Each of the raion's urban localities administered their own councils, often containing a few other villages within its jurisdiction. However, only a handful of rural localities were organized into councils, which also might contain a few villages within its jurisdiction.

Accordingly, Khmelnytskyi Raion was divided into:[1]

  • 1 settlement council—made up of the urban-type settlement of Chornyi Ostriv
  • 38 village councils

Overall, before 2020 the raion had a total of 78 populated localities, consisting of one urban-type settlement, 76 villages, and one rural settlement.[1]

Before the 2020 reform, the raion consisted of four hromadas:[6]

  • with the administration in the urban-type settlement of Chornyi Ostriv;
