Prždevo
Prždevo is a mixed ethnic Macedonian and Roma village with over 200 residents, located in the Republic of Macedonia. It had nearly 500 residents just 15 years ago, but many moved to larger areas. Even so, the village boasts a pepper factory and a winery, scheduled to open in 2008. It is the only village in the municipality with ethnic Roma families, which account for about 20% of the population. It has a very old church, and is the crossroads for several other villages to the east and south. Many villagers are farmers and produce their own livestock for dairy products as well.
