Previously, the settlement was known as the El-Buzlu village (Crimean Tatar: El Buzlu). Following the forced deportation of the Crimean Tatars in 1944, the Presidium of the Supreme Soviet of the Russian SFSR published a decree on May 18, 1948 renaming the settlement along with many others throughout Crimea from their native Crimean Tatar names to their current variants.[3]

Perevalivka is located on Crimea's southern shore in the Crimean Mountains at an elevation of 387 m (1,270 ft).[1] Its population was 687 in the 2001 Ukrainian census.[2] Current population: 776 (2014 Census).[4]
