The role of the largest urban agglomerations and cities with millions of inhabitants in Russia in shaping the quality of life and housing conditions of the population is analyzed in the article. The main problems of the development of large urban agglomerations of Russia in the post-Soviet period are considered. The existing methods of defining their boundaries are analyzed. Based on the calculation of the pair correlation coefficients, the nature and degree of closeness of the relationship between the population of the largest urban agglomerations of Russia and a number of basic characteristi

Abstract:
The evaluation of housing conditions is a crucial aspect of determining the well-being of residents and the sustainable development of settlements. Assessing housing conditions at a macro-level is imperative to understand the differences in well-being and livability among residents in various regions within a country. Unfortunately, the spatial variation characteristics of housing conditions in China have not been extensively studied at the county scale. Thus, this study examines the housing conditions in China by using 2846 counties as the basic research unit. A housing condition evaluation i

Abstract Introduction: Poverty imposes an oppressive weight on India, especially in the rural areas where almost three out of four Indians and 77 percent of the Indian are under poor living conditions. Although poverty has been reduced during the past four decades, it remains painfully high. Provision of adequate housing and amenities are major challenges for human development, particularly among lowincome urban households in developing countries. Often this shortfall is evident from the proliferation of slums and squatters. Objectives: 1. To assess the housing conditions of the semi urban are

This study aims to examine and discuss the issues of housing shortages, slum populations, and homelessness in urban India.

One year before my academic life began, Jim Kemeny published a book called ‘Housing and Social Theory’ (Kemeny 1992). This book has had a major impact within European housing and urban research over the last two and a half decades, not least by crystalizing its epistemic divisions into ‘mainstream’ and ‘critical’ (Webb 2012). In the face of Kemeny’s critique, ‘mainstream’ housing and urban researchers have remained wedded to ‘policy oriented’ empiricist approaches about which they have been defensive.

Abstract:
Not only does construction activity in the regions play a crucial role in the regional development, as it not only provides employment opportunities and thus contributes to the well-being of the population, but also creates favourable conditions for access to modern housing and requires the mobility of human resources to the regions. At the same time, construction in regions and rural areas often implies more difficult conditions than in urban environments, which are associated with both funding opportunities and working conditions.

Abstract:
Comparisons are needed to assess the successes and failures of today’s public policies, as well as to promote policy learning. This is particularly important in the case of policies for low-income and disadvantaged groups such as the Roma, Europe’s largest ethnic minority, whose housing conditions starkly contrast with those of the general population wherever they reside. Roma families often live in precarious housing in segregated neighborhoods, and face significant obstacles to accessing essential services.

Abstract:
This study explores the interrelations of hypertension, homelessness, and access to healthcare in urban ill-housed populations. It was found that conditions such as heart disease and diabetes significantly exacerbate hypertension, which remains highly prevalent due to the population's limited access to consistent medical care. Homelessness further complicates the management of hypertension due to unstable living conditions, making adherence to treatment and follow-up with healthcare providers challenging. Additionally, factors like higher rates of substance abuse and malnutrition among homeles

Abstract:
Today, access to decent housing represents one of the greatest difficulties for most Argentinian households. Rental housing, under current conditions, is the only housing option or strategy for a large percentage of the population. This modality also presents serious restrictions, not only of an economic nature. There is a mismatch between availability and demand of rental housing for certain types of households. This paper presents an analysis of the housing typologies offered in the Córdoba city, Argentina during the first semester of 2022. From this, it seeks to account for the level of urb

Abstract:
This paper discusses the evolution of housing conditions in urban areas of Latin America and the Caribbean from 1995 to 2006 based on data from household surveys done in 18 countries that comprise 95 percent of the urban population of the region. The results indicate that, on average, the proportion of urban households facing housing shortages is declining. This decline holds for households of all income levels, particularly those in the lower quintiles of the income distribution structure. The estimates made in this study indicate that in 2006 lack of infrastructure affected almost 19 million

This study assesses the empirical relevance of the Harris-Todaro model at high levels of urbanization a feature that characterizes an increasing number of developing countries, which were largely rural when the model was created 50 years ago. Using data from Brazil, the paper compares observed and model-based predictions of the equilibrium urban employment rate of 449 cities and the rural regions that are the historic sources of their migrant populations. Little support is found in the data for the most basic version of the model. However, extensions that incorporate labor informality and hous

Abstract:
Rheumatic and musculoskeletal disorders (RMDs) affect approximately one-third of the UK population, yet access to timely and equitable care remains inconsistent. National audits have highlighted significant variations in service provision and health outcomes, shaped by individual socio-demographic characteristics and place-based factors. Rural populations, comprising around 20% of the UK, face unique challenges due to geographic remoteness, centralised specialist services, and an ageing demographic. Workforce constraints and service accessibility further exacerbate these disparities, limiting

Abstract:
This Policy Note examines the changing dynamics of household formation in the Philippines. It observes that the number of new households has slowed due to falling fertility rates, an aging population, and limited access to affordable housing. Despite a growing preference for living alone, the percentage of extended and multifamily households has increased significantly. These patterns suggest that the housing market influences household structures and rural-to-urban migration. Finally, the study notes that households led by the elderly are increasingly supporting homeownership for a growing po

Abstract:
The survey presented in this report reveals that Nordic citizens are concerned about climate change. Many people are willing to increase efforts to fight climate change, even if this entails a personal contribution in terms of higher taxes or behavioural change. The survey shows that different social groups perceive the impacts of climate change and climate mitigation policies in different ways. In general, attitudes towards climate policies and perceptions regarding their fairness are conditioned by socio-demographic factors such as gender, age, employment status, type of housing and transpor

Abstract:
Urban migrants in Latin America and the Caribbean are significantly less likely to own homes compared to residents, with demographic factors accounting for about one-third of this homeownership gap (HOMG). Compared to local residents, migrants tend to have less living space and fewer housing amenities like rooms and cooking areas, and they have uneven access to services like water and sewage. Optimizing existing housing stock and developing rental marketse.g., by streamlining processes while upholding quality and safety standardsare key strategies to support migrants in securing housing and en

Abstract:
In the last three decades, the supply of housing in Argentina has not kept pace with demand. This study analyzes the main drivers of Argentina's housing market and relates them to the macroeconomic environment in order to advance a policy agenda for housing policy reform. The demand for housing was calculated and tenure choice was analyzed. Structural characteristics affecting Argentina's housing market include the high concentration of the urban population in a few large metropolitan areas, te association of urban poverty with the housing deficit, and overcrowding.
