Lazovsky District (Russian: Лазо́вский райо́н) is an administrative[1] and municipal[7] district (raion), one of the twenty-two in Primorsky Krai, Russia. It is located in the southeast of the krai on the eastern slopes of the Sikhote-Alin mountain range and its southern spurs. The area of the district is 4,691.5 square kilometers (1,811.4 sq mi).[4] Its administrative center is the rural locality (a selo) of Lazo.[3] Population: 14,235 (2010 Census);[5] 17,521 (2002 Census);[9] 21,311 (1989 Soviet census).[10] The population of Lazo accounts for 24.1% of the district's total population.[5]

History
The district was split from Olginsky District on March 4, 1941 as Sokolovsky District, and was given its present name on August 26, 1949 after the administrative center was moved to Lazo from the settlement of Sudzukhe.[2]
