Comprehensive analysis of demographic security of the coastal zone of the Eastern Azov region

The current state and prospects for sustainable development of Russia and the Russian regions are directly or indirectly associated with demographic processes. The demographic state of the territories is an integral indicator of all spheres of life, and the level of demographic safety reflects the state of stability of the territory to various adverse factors. The purpose of the study is to analyze the current demographic status and the demographic safety level as the basis for sustainable development of the coastal zone of the Eastern Azov region (Krasnodar Region). It includes Eysk, Primorsko-Akhtarsk, Slavyanskiy, Temryuk and Shcheibinovskiy municipal districts. The information base of the study is the materials of state statistics on demographic processes and the database of the regional office of the Federal State Statistics Service for Krasnodar Region for the period from 2012 to 2021. A system of indicators has been formed that allows for a comprehensive understanding of the demographic threats to the studied territories. Using an interdisciplinary approach, a study of the demographic dynamics and the level of demographic security of coastal municipal districts was carried out. Using modern information technologies, an integral indicator of the level of demographic security of the coastal zone of the Eastern Azov region was built. The study identified the main modern demographic threats and the degree of tension in the demographic situation in municipal districts and concluded that the values of the selected indicators are significantly unfavorable than in Krasnodar Region. Temryuk and Slavyanskiy districts are classified as having a high level of depopulation and a high level of aging, with a very high level of depopulation and a very high level of aging - Primorsko-Akhtarsk, Shcherbinovskiy and Eysk districts.
