2002 Census.[1]

History

According to the legend, the area of modern Khoro was settled by the Khoro tribes from the

Vilyuy and Tyukyan rivers. This settlement served as the seat of administration of the surrounding area for several decades, after which it was moved to the Yolyonnyokh area 45 kilometers (28 mi) down by the Vilyuy River, where the ostrog (fortified settlement) of Olensk (now Vilyuysk
) was founded in 1773.

Modern Khoro was established in 1952 by merging four neighboring kolkhozes.[citation needed] Until 2003, the official name of the village was Bulgunnyakhtakh (Булгунняхтах); named so after the post office.[citation needed]
