Abstract
As countries develop, the proportion of people living in megacities increases, and in the largest ones. Globally, the average proportion of the country’s population living in urban areas is only 34% in low-income countries and 71% in high-income countries. Agglomerations or megacities are large urbanized territories, usually consisting of a core and periphery, characterized by a high population density and a developed transport network. The increase in the burden on the infrastructure of the largest agglomerations is due to the continued influx of the Russian population. As a result of the overload of the transport infrastructure, environmental problems are becoming more acute, which leads to a deterioration in the health of the population and an increase in the costs of the healthcare system, an increase in the burden on the management system of the largest agglomerations. Compression of small and medium-sized cities: reduction of tax revenues while maintaining the burden on the city budget and infrastructure will not allow to qualitatively improve the standard of living of citizens. The growing gap in the quality of life and existing opportunities between the largest agglomerations and small and medium-sized cities may lead to an even greater migration outflow from the latter.
