DEVELOPMENT OF URBAN AGGLOMERATIONS IN THE SYSTEM OF TERRITORIAL HOUSING

Abstract

The article studies the development of agglomerations in the system of territorial placement of the population, which is one of the main areas in the regional economy, and agglomerations are the main supporting frameworks of settlement. It was revealed that in modern conditions there are no methods for isolating agglomerations, while in most countries this is carried out at the state level. And the lack of state statistical information does not allow you to fully explore the processes of emergence and development of agglomerations that occur spontaneously. It is determined that according to most parameters characterizing agglomeration processes in Russia, they are comparable with developed countries and significantly affect the territorial location of the population, the ranges of which are grouped near the largest cities. This process involves urban and rural settlements, changing their economic structure, while there is an increase in the population in agglomerations and a decrease in rural residents as a whole. It is proposed that the problems of the development of agglomeration systems be solved through the improvement of theoretical and practical approaches, which will ultimately allow state authorities to improve the system of territorial placement of the population, give economic growth, and contribute to the reproduction of human resources.
