Characteristics

Ugrinovci is statistically classified as a village, since majority of its population is employed in agriculture. Since detachment of the municipality of Surčin from Zemun in 2003, Ugrinovci remained the only separate settlement in the municipality of Zemun, as all the other settlements (Batajnica, Zemun Polje, former city of Zemun, etc.) are part of the Belgrade city proper (uža teritorija grada).

Name of the village comes from the medieval name for Hungarians (Ugri).
