Conclusion
Thus, the population of Ust-Labinsk (Krasnodar Territory) is generally increasing, although recently there has been a tendency towards a gradual decrease in this indicator. However, this decline is not as pronounced as in many other cities of the Russian Federation, which can be explained by favorable natural conditions, a competent policy of the leadership of the Krasnodar Territory (this is one of the most prosperous regions of Russia), and a positive situation on the labor market. But since there is still a decline, it can be assumed that young people prefer to leave for larger cities (for example, Moscow), where wages are higher and the variety of vacancies is wider.
