    Area of Science:

    • Demography
    • Urban Studies
    • Economic Geography

    Background:

    • Post-Soviet demographic shifts present unique challenges for urban planning.
    • Understanding urban population dynamics is crucial for regional development in Russia.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To analyze the regional distribution, economic functions, and size characteristics of Russian urban settlements experiencing population decline between 1989 and 1993.
    • To identify patterns of urban population change in Russia during the early post-Soviet period.

    Main Methods:

    • Analysis of census data from the former USSR.
    • Utilizing population estimates for urban places (over 15,000 population) in the Russian Federation for 1993.
    • Comparative analysis with previous demographic patterns.

    Main Results:

    • Identified an increase in the number of declining urban settlements in key manufacturing regions and the North of Russia.
    • Observed a rise in the number of large cities experiencing population decline.
    • Investigated towns with the most significant population decreases (≥10.0%).

    Conclusions:

    • The early post-Soviet period (1989-1993) witnessed complex urban population dynamics in Russia, with notable regional variations.
    • Specific economic functions and geographic locations influenced the rate and extent of urban population decline.
    • Further research is needed to understand the long-term implications of these demographic trends for Russian urban development.
