Composition of population

The national composition of the city has always been in the center of attention of the authorities, but the constant mention in local newspapers that the city is multinational, the matter did not clarify. For the first time, residents of the city were able to learn about their national composition only in 1991 according to the results of the population census, when the information was published.

The population of Rostov-on-Don consists mainly of Russians, of which about 90%.

Natural decline

Today, the population of Rostov-on-Don is constantly increasing due to the following factor: there is a significant increase in migration, which exceeds the natural increase.

However, the natural loss of local residents far exceeds the natural increase. This fact is associated with high mortality, which extends to a generation that has not reached retirement age, especially this affects the male part of the city's population. Myocardial infarction, strokes, oncological diseases carry a high percentage of deaths.

According to this statistics, an important place is occupied by accidents on the roads and injuries. Also affects the mortality unhealthy lifestyle of Rostovites - smoking and alcoholism. Reproduction of the population through natural growth is not ensured because of the low birth rate.

Problems of the population

Why is this happening in the city of Rostov-on-Don? The population is experiencing financial difficulties, why can not afford their own housing, and if there is no housing, then what kind of children can there be? Also, there are not enough preschool institutions in the city , young families do not want to have children at all or want to have no more than one. Therefore, the main reason for not wanting to have at least two children is the difficulty in arranging a child in a kindergarten.

But lately there has been an increase in the number of kindergartens, so one problem will probably be less. And while Rostov-on-Don, whose population is growing only due to migration inflow, is a city in which mortality prevails over birth rate.

Closer to the night, the city's population decreases sharply

Despite the fact that the city is a millionaire, residents of the surrounding rural areas, as well as smaller cities, are flocking to work every day. Here there are workplaces for Aksaytsev, Novocherkassk, Shakhtintsy, Bataychan. Why is that? The fact that the city of Rostov-on-Don population of nearby neighborhoods attracts more competitive-capable salaries.

It is interesting that Rostovites have unofficial district names over time. If, for example, you ask a local resident how to get to the Leninsky district, then you will be asked exactly where you want: to the Center, to the New Settlement or to Nakhalovka? Many names appeared in the pre-revolutionary period and reflected the characteristics of the inhabitants of the area.

For example, Nakhalovka and the New Settlement arose as a result of self-construction, the city authorities could not help it, except to recognize these settlements with the workers who live there and introduce them into Rostov.
