Sectorul Rîșcani is one of the five sectors in Chișinău, the capital of Moldova. The local administration is managed by a pretor appointed by the city administration. It governs over a portion of the city of Chișinău itself (the northeastern part), the town of Cricova, and the communes of Ciorescu, Grătiești, and Stăuceni. It is largely populated by Russians and Ukrainians. To distinguish it from the village of Riscani elsewhere in Moldova it is often referred to as Riscanovca by locals. Riscani's main street is Strada Moscova.
