The Statistical Committee of Armenia reported its population was 640 in 2010,[3] up from 576 at the 2001 census.[4]

It is located in the central-eastern part of the province, a short distance from the Vorotan River - a tributary of the Aras River, which, in turn, is a tributary of the Kurá - and the border with Azerbaijan.
