Leningradsky (Russian: Ленингра́дский) is an urban locality (an urban-type settlement) in Iultinsky District of Chukotka Autonomous Okrug, Russia, about 80 kilometers (50 mi) west of Mys Shmidta.

[2] The Russian government guaranteed funds to transport non-working pensioners and the unemployed in liquidated settlements including Leningradsky from Chukotka to other parts of Russia.

Drunk and bored with their duties in the far north, they took weapons and vodka and went to Leningradsky, seized the local store there and began to have a party, drinking and firing shots into the air.

[11] The population's occupations are primarily fishing in the nearby Chukchi Sea and gold mining, with the region's three main prospecting teams – Polyarnaya,[6] Arktika and Shakhtar, being based in Leningradsky.

[13] The prospecting team Shakhtar has been employing about 50 men for the last two decades,[14] mostly from Ukraine[14] who spend six months a year working in Chukotka and then six back at home on the "mainland".
