Alexăndreni is a commune in Sîngerei District, Moldova. It is composed of five villages: Alexăndreni, Grigorești, Heciul Vechi, Țiplești and Țipletești. The village of Alexăndreni was established in 1837 as a Jewish agricultural colony, with Jews remaining as the majority of population prior to World War II. The commune is located northeast of Bălți.
==Population== Its population includes survivors of a generation that migrated west from Bessarabia in 1940 when the USSR occupied Bessarabia under the Molotov–Ribbentrop Pact with Nazi Germany. More Bessarabians migrated to what is now the Alexăndreni Commune when Romania lost the territory again in 1944 after recapturing it in 1941.
