Abstract

The Russian population continues to be concentrated in large cities and urbanagglomerations, while the proportion of people living in small towns and ruralsettlements is decreasing. Migration from rural areas is caused by the insufficientlevel of socio-economic development of individual municipal areas. In this regard,the research purpose was to identify the relationship between changes in thehousing market and rural depopulation. As a result, the authors have identified anegative correlation between the demographic situation and such indicators as theaverage number of floors and the average area of a housing unit under construction.A positive correlation with demographic indicators in such an indicator as the areaof newly surveyed land plots was found.
