On 18 July 2020, as part of the administrative reform of Ukraine, the number of raions of Kyiv Oblast was reduced to seven, and the area of Brovary Raion was significantly expanded. Two abolished raions, Baryshivka and Zghurivka Raions, as well as the cities of Berezan and Brovary, which were previously incorporated as a city of oblast significance and did not belong to the raion, were merged into Brovary Raion.[2][3] The January 2020 estimate of the raion population was 68,688 (2020 est.).[4]
