The village was near the Samara - Uralsk highway. Through Glushitsa from Samara to Uralsk they brought manufactory, shoes, and “small goods”. From Uralsk to Samara - fish, skin, cattle, sheep, horses. Over time, Glushitsa becomes a major shopping center, where bazaars are held weekly. And thrice a year - noisy fairs ^[3] .

In the early 1960s, a village of oil workers began to be built up - the southern part of the village ^[5] .
