Žukovskij è una città della Russia europea centrale, compresa nell'oblast' di Mosca; sorge lungo il fiume Moscova, a circa 40 km dalla capitale in direzione sud-est. Il primo insediamento urbano sul posto risale al 1930, ed aveva nome Stachanovo, dal nome del minatore Aleksej Grigor'evič Stachanov. Più tardi, nel 1947, l'insediamento fu promosso a città e ribattezzato con l'attuale nome, che le deriva da uno dei padri dell'ingegneria aeronautica, Nikolaj Egorovič Žukovskij. Proprio questo comparto industriale è ancora il principale della città, insieme con altri, meno importanti ma tuttavia di un certo rilievo nel panorama cittadino: alimentare, cartario e del legno.
