Geography

The village is located 12 km south-west of Sremska Mitrovica, on the river Zasavica. Although part of the Srem District, Zasavica I is situated in the region of Mačva south of the Sava river. It is one of several settlements in the northern section of the region of Mačva which were administratively included into the province of Vojvodina when it was created in 1945. With the adjacent village of Zasavica II (Donja Zasavica), it still forms a single cadastral unit, although they are treated as separate villages for census purposes.
