The town's name comes from manufacturer Vsevolozhsky. In 1941–1944, the vital road connecting besieged Leningrad with the rest of Soviet Union, the Road of Life, passed through the town. Currently, a considerable part of the population of Vsevolozhsk commutes to St. Petersburg for work, which is facilitated by the wide-scale construction of apartment buildings in the town.
