Population as of 2006 was 420, of which 340 were indigenous peoples. This is an increase from the 2005 population of 355 according to an environmental impact report on the Kupol Gold Project.[7] Municipally, Ostrovnoye is subordinated to Bilibinsky Municipal District and is incorporated as Ostrovnoye Rural Settlement.[2]

The village is a historical centre for the region, as it was the site of an ostrog built as Russians began to explore and lay claim to the region.[3]
