Boljevci

Boljevci (Serbian Cyrillic: Бољевци, pronounced [bǒ:ʎeʋtsi] (listen)) is a suburban settlement of Belgrade, Serbia. It is located in Belgrade's municipality of Surčin.

Boljevci is located on the left bank of the Sava river, in the south-central part of the municipality, in the Syrmia region (the sub-region of Podlužje, east of the Bojčinska woods). It is 12 kilometers south of its municipal seat, Surčin, and some 30 kilometers of downtown Belgrade. It is located on the road which connects Surčin to Progar (through Jakovo) and continues further into the province of Vojvodina (the village of Kupinovo).

Boljevci is statistically classified as a rural settlement (village). It had a steady population growth until the 1960s when the population began to fluctuate. According to the latest official population census, population on Boljevci was 4,094 in 2011.

Ethnic structure (census of 2002): Serbs 2,653 (65,41%), Slovaks 1,132 (27,91%), Yugoslavs 40 (0,98%).

The most well-known song of Slovak residents of Boljevci is Boľovčania čo robíte.

The remains belonging to the Scordisci, a Celtic tribe which founded Singidunum and Taurunum, the predecessors of Belgrade and Zemun, respectively, were found in Boljevci.

Boljevci is located in the marshy floodplain of the Sava. On the west of Boljevci, is a larger pond of Živača, used for the "Boljevci" fish pond.
