Abstract:
The study is due to the severity and magnitude of the problems of single-industry municipalities. Single-industry towns are the “weak spot” of Russia. In such municipalities, the dependence of the settlement on the city-forming enterprise is clearly expressed, which causes well-founded concerns in the conditions of the economic crisis in which the Russian Federation has been staying for a long time. The population of single-industry towns may be left without jobs and wages, the city budget will lose the monetary component of the taxes of the city-forming enterprise. In such situation populatio

An additional task consisted in the identification of factors resolving contradictions between the development of a commercialised city and the preservation of the historical compact centre.

Abstract:
The physical and social characteristics of urban neighborhoods engender unique stressors and assets, contributing to community-level variation in health over the lifecourse. Actors such as city planners and community organizations can help strengthen resilience in places where chronic stress is endemic, by learning about perceived stressors and assets from neighborhood users themselves (residents, workers, business owners). This study piloted a methodology to identify Toronto neighborhoods experiencing chronic stress and to engage them to identify neighborhood stressors, assets, and solutions.

Abstract:
The formation of a comfortable urban environment is one of the priority areas for the development of single-industry towns. The attractiveness of the city (for residents, visitors, etc.) is largely due to the peculiarities of its territorial design. In combination with marketing tools, territorial design becomes a powerful factor in increasing the attractiveness of a single-industry city and improving the quality of life. Particular importance in the formation of a comfortable urban environment is given to the improvement of public areas. When designing such areas, it is important to take into

Nothing can exist, live, survive or thrive without water. Water is the basis of life for all living organisms and the centre of life for all societies. The global attitude around water has become territorial as it encompasses an intricate link to the development of nations. Centralising main water supplies beyond urban boundaries may have improved the utilisation of water but has also resulted in the separation of society and water. Water is what gave rise to the city of Cape Town, as there was an abundance of rivers and springs located on and around Table Mountain. This water was first used b
