History

It was founded in 1740 as a sloboda inhabited by settlers from Left-bank Ukraine. After the settlement was transferred into the ownership of count Buturlin, in 1766 local residents staged a rebellion against enserfment. Under the Tsarist rule Buturlinovka was the biggest village of Voronezh Governorate, and local population engaged in handicrafts. Town status was granted to Buturlinovka in 1917.^{[citation needed]}

The settlement represented the northeasternmost part of Ukrainian ethnic territory, with 85% of its population of 28,000 identifying as Ukrainians (according to the 1926 Soviet census).^[7] Its population has shrunk throughout the past 30 years, as per the Russian census: 24,397 (2021 census);^[8] 27,208 (2010 census);^[2] 28,627 (2002 census);^[9] 29,258 (1989 Soviet census).^[10].
