History
Until 18 July 2020, Ustynivka was the administrative center of Ustynivka Raion. The raion was abolished in July 2020 as part of the administrative reform of Ukraine, which reduced the number of raions of Kirovohrad Oblast to four. The area of Ustynivka Raion was merged into Kropyvnytskyi Raion.[4][5]
Until 26 January 2024, Ustynivka was designated urban-type settlement. On this day, a new law entered into force which abolished this status, and Ustynivka became a rural settlement.[6]
