Artyom (Template:Lang-ru) is a town in Primorsky Krai, Russia, situated in the northern part of the Muravyov-Amursky Peninsula.
Artyom comprises a chain of small settlements paralleling the Vladivostok—Nakhodka highway, in which Vladivostok is 50km south along this Highway. It is built mainly with one-, two-, and five-story houses of stone and brick, though a comparatively large number of wooden private houses can be seen. Founded in 1924 near the Zybunny pit mine it is named after a famous revolutionary Artyom (F.A. Sergeyev). In 1938, it was granted town status. Artyom comprises three former urban-type settlements: Uglovoye, Zavodskoy, and Artyomovsky.
Business and industry
Half of the able-bodied population of Artyom is engaged in the production of materials.
Artyom has 29 industrial enterprises, half of which are private. Among the consumer goods produced in the town are furniture, china, sewing production. The companies employing the largest number of workers in Artyom are Primorskoye Mine Administration (3,500 people) and Artyom-Mebel Furniture Factory (1,100 people). Fifteen joint ventures have been registered in Artyom.
Coal mining, an industry without future, has always been the basis of the local economy. Coal reserves have practically been exhausted. The forecasts are that transport will be the most productive industry for Artyom's economic development.
Vladivostok International Airport is located near Artyom. The largest Primorsky Krai railroad junction is also found here. Annually, 12 million tons of cargo pass through Artyom to Vladivostok, and 24 million tons to Nakhodka. In 1994, the airport served 500,000 passengers. This number represents no more than 28% of its potential.
