Administrative and municipal status

Within the framework of administrative divisions, Ardon serves as the administrative center of Ardonsky District.[1] As an administrative division, it is, together with two rural localities (the settlements of Bekan and Stepnoy), incorporated within Ardonsky District as Ardon Town Under District Jurisdiction.[1] As a municipal division, the town of Ardon and the settlement of Bekan (but not the settlement of Stepnoy) are incorporated within Ardonsky Municipal District as Ardonskoye Urban Settlement.[2]

The town is an important road and rail junction at the head of a branch line to the southern town of Alagir. Until 1964, it was only a village, before it was transformed into an industrial-agricultural hub with a cannery, a hemp processing factory, and other facilities for food and agricultural processing.
