It belongs to the municipality of Amfilochia. The village has 90 inhabitants (2011 census). Together with the smaller villages Pistiana and Kremasta Sykias, it forms the community Alevrada, population 124 (2011). GeographyThe village Alevrada is situated 3 km west of the artificial lake Kremasta, at 573 m above sea level. Pistiana is about 1 km to the east, on the road to the Tatarna Bridge. Kremasta Sykias is 6 km to the southeast, near the Kremasta Dam. The nearest larger village is Chalkiopoulo, 11 km to the northwest. Amfilochia is 45 km to the west. HistoryAlevrada appears as a community immediately after the Greek war of independence and the arrival of the king Otto. The origin of the name "Alevrada" is unknown. May be it derives from the word "Alevri" (which in Greek means flour) because of the flour mills which were scattered across the banks of the river Achelous. Another interpretation is that a person with the surname "Alevradas" was the first inhabitant of the place. The villagers cultivated as well a lot of corn fields due to the abundance of water from the river. So there was plenty of corn flour which can explain the name "Alevrada" (the village which has a lot of alevri = flour). During the war for independence there were very few people living in the area (mostly shepherds). That time the village was 2 kilometers far from today's place.The name "palichoraki = old village" reminds this event.
