Neighborhood located to the west and south west of Kyiv

Borshchahivka (Борщагівка, Борщаговка) is a neighborhood located to the west and south west of Kyiv, the capital of Ukraine. It is part of the city's Sviatoshynskyi District. The neighborhood is named after a large village that was founded at the site. The contemporary urban look comes from the 1960s and 1970s. The neighborhood is divided into four sections: Mykilska, Mykhailivska, Bratska, and Pivdenna (South) Borshchahivka. The first three are former villages incorporated into Kyiv, while the last section was built in 1980s in place of northern Bratska Borshchahivka. Two villages named Petropavlivska Borshchahivka and Sofiivska Borshchahivka also exist nearby, but they do not belong to Kyiv. A fast tram line connects Borshchahivka with Kyiv's central railway station. In Polish Slownik geograficzny (Geographic Dictionary), there is a mentioning of locality named as Borzakowszczyzna near Pyrohiv (Pirogow), which is a property of Kyiv Pechersk Lavra. The locality was named after the monasterial scribe Vasyl Borzakiv. At the same time, the dictionary has another term "Borszczhowka" which is described as an old urban place from old princely Ruthenia belonging to Witold Svidrigiello and later Princely House of Olelkovych. This Borszczahowka is stretching from the mouth of river Horikhuvatka towards Ros River, on the administrative border between counties Skvyra and Tarashcha.

During the Russian invasion of Ukraine, as a result of a missile attack, a local resident was killed and residential buildings were damaged. The neighborhood was also damaged during the Battle of Kyiv.
