Population: 12,269 (2002 Census);[1] 11,840 (1989 Soviet census).[2]

Despite its relatively large population, Cherlak is predominantly rural in character. The settlement's economy includes various businesses serving the needs of the district, as well as a meat-processing plant.

Transportation

Cherlak sits next to the Omsk–Pavlodar autoroute, which provides the primary way of access to the village. Regular bus and "routed taxi" service connects the village to Omsk.

The railroad station most easily accessible from the village, and also named Cherlak, located 40 kilometers (25 mi) further southeast along the same autoroute, is served by few passenger trains, and is rarely used by the villagers.
