Possible reasons for the loss of residents
Novotroitsk belongs to the industrial cities of the Soviet “hardening”, which were formed and rapidly developed during the Soviet period. As the situation in the country changed, the need for heavy industries decreased, and the nature of economic activity also changed. This naturally led to socio-economic difficulties. There are quite a few similar cities in Russia, and there are some in the USA. The largest of them is Detroit. Adapting them to new conditions is a rather difficult task that requires a thoughtful and competent approach.
The deteriorating economic situation forces residents, especially young people, to migrate to more prosperous regions of the country, which leads not only to direct migration outflow, but also to a decrease in the birth rate, since mainly older generations remain, many of whose representatives continue to work in enterprises. All such cities are characterized by a convex curve of the number of inhabitants.
