Until 1976, the center of Ust-Chizhapskogo rural settlement was the Ust-Chizhapka, where there was a high school, a participating kovaya hospital, and during the war – two children's homes for those who were evacuated from Leningrad.

The river was at the center of the settlement at the beginning of the 20th century. The Ostiak settlement, called Chezhapka, which arose in the 1930s, was called the Ust-Chezhapka, but after the turn of the century, the spelling changed to end with the letter e, and the river and village were called Chizhapka and Ust-Chizhapka respectively.
