Demographics and economy

The village is a small settlement on the shore of the Bering Sea, population as of 2003: 464, [3] of which around 88% are of indigenous origin.[3] Given the proximity of the settlement to the sea, fishing is the primary means of employment in the village.

As with many Chukotkan villages, there are strong efforts made to keep the traditions of the indigenous peoples alive and, although Meynypilgyno has modern facilities in the shape of a hospital, post office, high school and daycare centre, there is also a traditional Chukchi ensemble and cultural centre.[3] In addition, residents still erect Yarangas along the coast in the summer.[3]

There is a museum in the village established by Salikh Sharafovich Ziabbarov, dedicated to local ethnography and culture. This museum was recently awarded the status of State Museum.[3]

Administrative vs. municipal jurisdiction

Until July 2008, Meynypilgyno was a part of both Beringovsky Municipal and Beringovsky Administrative District. In May 2008, Beringovsky Municipal District was merged into Anadyrsky Municipal District[7] (the administrative centre of which is Anadyr); however, this change did not affect the borders of Beringovsky Administrative District. Meynypilgyno continued to belong administratively to the latter until June 2011, when Beringovsky Administrative District was merged into Anadyrsky Administrative District and ceased to exist.
