FEATURES OF INTER-REGIONAL MIGRATION IN THE RUSSIAN FEDERATION IN 2017–2019

Abstract

In the previous article of authors [4], the main regions-attractors in Russia were identified: the Moscow metropolitan agglomeration, the St. Petersburg agglomeration, the Black Sea regions of the South of Russia, Krasnodar Territory, the Republic of Crimea, the city of Sevastopol, the Republic of Adygea, the Kaliningrad region in the Baltic. Most of the interregional migration flow is directed to these regions. The general picture of interregional migrations is more complicated and is not limited to the main regions as attractors. It is advisable to consider more fully the flows of interregional migrations in Russia. To analyze interregional migration, we used Rosstat data for 2017–2019. The indicators were taken in total for 2017–2019. to exclude annual random fluctuations, to more accurately identify the nature of migration. We excluded the Republic of Ingushetia from consideration due to the complexities and peculiarities of statistical recording of the migration loss of the population in this region. The study was carried out on the basis of approaches to regional analysis of demographic processes, which were developed by scientists-demographers and economists in various scientific centers of Russia, including Rybakovsky O.L., Borisova L.M., Chernyshev K.A., Mishchuk S.N., Khilazhevа G.F., Ryazantsev S.V.
