Russia's capital, Moscow, was the largest city in the country with over **** million residents as of January 1, 2024. Less than a half of Moscow's population resided in Saint Petersburg, the second-most populous city in the country. The third-largest city, Novosibirsk, was located in the Siberian Federal District, being the highest-populated city in the Asian part of Russia. Why is Moscow so populated? The Russian capital is the center of political, industrial, business, and cultural life in Russia. Despite being one of the most expensive cities worldwide, it continues to attract people from Russia and abroad, with its resident population following a generally upward trend over the past decade. Wages in Moscow are higher than in Russia on average, and more opportunities for employment and investment are available in the capital. Furthermore, the number of people living in Moscow was forecast to continue rising, exceeding **** million by 2035. Urbanization in Russia In 2024, around *** million Russian residents lived in cities. That was approximately three-quarters of the country’s population. The urbanization rate increased steadily over the 20th century, leading to a decline in the rural population. Among the country’s regions, the Northwestern Federal District had the highest share of residents in urban areas, measured at ** percent. In the Central Federal District, the tendency was that more people moved to Moscow and cities in the Moscow Oblast.

Among Russian cities with more than one million inhabitants, the country's capital Moscow received the highest urban environmental quality index score of *** out of 360 points in 2024, based on six criteria and six types of area. The second-leading city in this category was Saint Petersburg, Russia's second-largest city, while Kazan ranked third.

The "Russian Cities Distance Dataset" is a comprehensive collection of distance data between major cities in Stavropol region in Russia, designed to facilitate pathfinding and optimization tasks. This connected dataset includes information about the distances (in kilometres) between pairs of cities, allowing users to calculate the shortest paths and optimize routes for various purposes.

Key features of this dataset

City Connections: The dataset provides connectivity information between all cities of the Stavropol region, making it an invaluable resource for route planning, navigation, and logistics optimization.

Distance Data: Each entry in the dataset includes the distance in kilometres between two cities. The distances have been curated to reflect the actual road or travel distances between these locations.

A* Search Algorithm: This dataset is ideal for use with the A* (A-star) search algorithm, a widely used optimization and pathfinding algorithm. The A* algorithm can help find the shortest and most efficient routes between cities, making it suitable for applications in transportation, tourism, and urban planning.

City Pairings: The dataset covers pairs of cities, enabling users to calculate the shortest paths and travel distances between any two cities included in the dataset.

This database provides construction of Large Urban Regions (LUR) in Russia. A Large Urban Region (LUR) can be defined as an aggregation of continuous statistical units around a core that are economically dependent on this core and linked to it by economic and social strong interdependences. The main purpose of this delineation is to make cities comparable on the national and world scales and to make comparative social-economic urban studies. Aggregating different municipal districts around a core city, we construct a single large urban region, which allows to include all the area of economic influence of a core into one statistical unit (see Rogov & Rozenblat, 2020 for more details) thus, changing a city position in a global urban hierarchy. In doing so we use four principal urban concepts (Pumain et al., 1992): political definition, morphological definition, functional definition and conurbation that we call Large Urban Region. We constructed Russian LURs using criteria such as population distribution, road networks, access to an airport, distance from a core, presence of multinational firms. In this database, we provide population data for LURs and their administrative units.
