The total population of these cities is about 44 million people - 30.8% of the total population of Russia and 41.8% of the total urban population of Russia. The 14 millionaire cities are home to 30,189 thousand people - 21.1% of the total population of Russia and 28.7% of the total urban population of Russia.

The last cities to reach half a million status from the turn of the 20th and 21st centuries were Lipetsk, Kemerovo and Astrakhan (again after the mid-1980s - mid-1990s), Tomsk (again after the late 1980s - early 1990s), Makhachkala. Previously, for a long time (mid-1970s - early 2000s and late 2000s) it was a half-millionaire city, but by now Tula has dropped out of them. There are plans to achieve the status of half a millionaire in the cities of Cheboksary, Kirov and Stavropol by adding satellite cities Novocheboksarsk (after a negative referendum in 2008, the issue was postponed); Kirovo-Chepetsk, Slobodskoy; and Mikhailovsk, respectively. At the same time, Kirov already has more than a 500-thousandth urban district.

In the current 10th anniversary, due to natural growth, provided that the migration indicator is preserved, the cities of Kaliningrad, Kirov, Stavropol, Ulan-Ude and Cheboksary may become 500 thousandth.

Notes (edit)

An excerpt characterizing the cities of Russia with a population of more than 500 thousand people

And the owner of the courageous voice, apparently an infantry officer, laughed.
“And you're still afraid,” the first familiar voice continued. - Afraid of the unknown, that's what. Say what you like, that the soul will go to heaven ... after all, we know that there is no sky, but there is only one sphere.
Again a courageous voice interrupted the artilleryman.
- Well, treat the herbalist to yours, Tushin, - he said.
“Ah, this is the same captain who stood at the storekeeper without boots,” thought Prince Andrei, gladly recognizing his pleasant philosophizing voice.
- A grass-root can be, - said Tushin, - but all the same to comprehend the future life ...
He didn't finish. At this time a whistle was heard in the air; nearer, nearer, faster and more audible, more audible and faster, and the core, as if not having finished speaking everything that was needed, exploding splashes with superhuman force, splashed into the ground not far from the booth. The earth seemed to gasp from a terrible blow.
At the same instant, the first to jump out of the booth was little Tushin with a pipe bitten on its side; his kind, intelligent face was somewhat pale. Behind him came the owner of a courageous voice, a brave infantry officer, and ran to his company, buttoning up his buttons as he ran.

Prince Andrew stopped on horseback on the battery, looking at the smoke of the cannon, from which the cannonball flew out. His eyes scattered over a vast space. He saw only that the formerly motionless masses of the French were swaying, and that there really was a battery to the left. The smoke has not yet cleared on it. Two French horsemen, probably adjutants, galloped up the mountain. Downhill, probably to strengthen the chain, a clearly visible small column of the enemy was moving. The smoke of the first shot had not yet cleared, as another smoke and a shot appeared. The battle has begun. Prince Andrew turned his horse and galloped back to Grunt to look for Prince Bagration. Behind him, he heard the cannonade grow louder and more frequent. Apparently, ours were beginning to answer. Below, in the place where the envoys were passing, rifle shots were heard.
Lemarrois (Le Marierois) with a formidable letter from Bonaparte had just galloped to Murat, and the ashamed Murat, wanting to make amends for his mistake, immediately moved his troops to the center and bypassing both flanks, hoping even before the evening and before the arrival of the emperor to crush the insignificant who stood in front of him, squad.
"Started! Here it is!" thought Prince Andrew, feeling how the blood more often began to rush to his heart. “But where is it? How will my Toulon put it? " he thought.
Passing between the same mouths that ate porridge and drank vodka a quarter of an hour ago, he saw everywhere the same rapid movements of soldiers building up and taking apart guns, and on all faces he recognized the feeling of animation that was in his heart. "Started! Here it is! Scary and fun! " spoke the face of every soldier and officer.
Before reaching the fortification under construction, he saw in the evening light of a cloudy autumn day, horseback riding towards him. The front line, in a burka and a cap with straps, rode a white horse. It was Prince Bagration. Prince Andrew stopped, waiting for him. Prince Bagration suspended his horse and, recognizing Prince Andrew, nodded his head to him. He continued to look ahead while Prince Andrew told him what he saw.
Expression: “it's started! here it is!" there was even on the strong brown face of Prince Bagration with half-closed, dull, as if sleepy eyes. Prince Andrey gazed with uneasy curiosity at this motionless face, and he wanted to know if he was thinking and feeling, and what he was thinking, what was this man feeling at that moment? "Is there anything at all behind this motionless face?" Prince Andrew asked himself, looking at him. Prince Bagration bowed his head, in agreement with the words of Prince Andrey, and said: "Good", with such an expression as if everything that happened and what he was told was exactly what he had already foreseen. Prince Andrew, pushed up by the speed of the ride, spoke quickly. Prince Bagration pronounced the words with his oriental accent especially slowly, as if suggesting that there was nowhere to hurry. He started, however, with a trot on his horse in the direction of Tushin's battery. Prince Andrew, along with his retinue, went after him. They were following Prince Bagration: a retinue officer, the prince's personal adjutant, Zherkov, an orderly, an officer on duty on a beautiful englised horse, and a civil servant, an auditor who, out of curiosity, asked to go to battle. The auditor, a plump man with a full face, looked around with a naive smile of joy, shaking on his horse, imagining a strange sight in his camlot overcoat on a furshtat saddle among the hussars, Cossacks and adjutants.
“He wants to watch the battle,” Zherkov said to Bolkonsky, pointing to the auditor, “but it’s already sick in the stomach.
`` Well, that's enough for you, '' said the auditor with a radiant, naive and at the same time sly smile, as if he was flattered that he was the subject of Zherkov's jokes, and as if he deliberately tried to seem more stupid than he really was.
- Tres drole, mon monsieur prince, [Very funny, my lord prince,] - said the officer on duty. (He remembered that in French the title of prince is especially said, and he could not get it right.)
At this time, they were all already approaching Tushin's battery, and a cannonball struck in front of them.
- Why did it fall? The auditor asked with a naive smile.
“The cakes are French,” said Zherkov.
- That's what they beat, then? The auditor asked. - What a passion!
And he seemed to be blooming all over with pleasure. As soon as he finished speaking, an unexpectedly terrible whistle sounded again, which suddenly stopped with a blow to something liquid, and a slap - a Cossack, riding a little to the right and behind the auditor, collapsed with his horse to the ground. Zherkov and the officer on duty bent down to their saddles and turned their horses away. The auditor stopped opposite the Cossack, examining him with attentive curiosity. The Cossack was dead, the horse was still struggling.
Prince Bagration, screwing up his eyes, looked around and, seeing the cause of the confusion that had occurred, turned away indifferently, as if saying: is it worth it to engage in nonsense! He stopped the horse, with the reception of a good rider, bent over a little and straightened the sword caught on the cloak. The sword was old, not the kind that was worn now. Prince Andrey recalled the story of how Suvorov in Italy presented his sword to Bagration, and at that moment he was especially pleased with this recollection. They drove up to the very battery at which Bolkonsky was standing when he was examining the battlefield.
- Whose company? - Asked Prince Bagration at the fireworks, standing by the boxes.
He asked: whose company? but in essence he was asking: are you not shy here? And the fireworks got it.
“Captain Tushina, Your Excellency,” a redhead with a face covered with freckles shouted, stretching out, in a cheerful voice.
- So, so, - said Bagration, thinking something, and drove past the limb to the extreme weapon.
As he was approaching, a shot rang out from this gun, stunning him and his retinue, and in the smoke that suddenly surrounded the gun, the gunners were visible, picking up the gun and, hastily straining, rolling it back to its original place. The broad-shouldered, huge soldier 1st with a bannik, legs wide apart, jumped to the wheel. 2nd, with a shaking hand, put the charge into the barrel. A small stooped man, Officer Tushin, stumbled on his trunk, ran forward, not noticing the general and looking out from under the little arm.
“Add two more lines, that's how it will be,” he shouted in a thin voice, which he tried to give a spiritedness that did not suit his figure. - Second! He squeaked. - Crash, Medvedev!
Bagration called out to the officer, and Tushin, with a timid and awkward movement, not at all like the military salute, but in the way the priests bless, putting three fingers to the visor, went up to the general. Although Tushin's guns were assigned to shell the ravine, he fired brandskugels at the village of Schöngraben in front of which large masses of French were advancing.
No one ordered Tushin where and how to shoot, and he, after consulting with his sergeant major Zakharchenok, for whom he had great respect, decided that it would be good to set fire to the village. "Good!" said Bagration to the officer's report and began to look around the entire battlefield that opened before him, as if thinking something. WITH right side the French came closest. Below the height at which the Kiev regiment stood, in the hollow of the river, one could hear the rolling clatter of rifles grabbing for the soul, and much to the right, behind the dragoons, the retinue officer pointed to the prince at the column of the French that was bypassing our flank. To the left, the horizon was bounded by a nearby forest. Prince Bagration ordered two battalions from the center to go for reinforcements to the right. The officer of the suite dared to tell the prince that when these battalions left, the guns would be left without cover. Prince Bagration turned to the officer of the suite and looked at him with dull eyes in silence. It seemed to Prince Andrew that the remark of the officer of the suite was fair and that there really was nothing to say. But at this time an adjutant galloped up from the regimental commander, who was in the hollow, with the news that huge masses of the French were going down, that the regiment was upset and retreating to the Kiev grenadiers. Prince Bagration bowed his head in agreement and approval. He rode a step to the right and sent an adjutant to the dragoons with orders to attack the French. But the adjutant sent there arrived half an hour later with the news that the dragoon regimental commander had already retreated behind the ravine, for a strong fire was directed against him, and he wastedlessly losing people and therefore hurried the riflemen into the forest.
- Good! - said Bagration.
While he was driving away from the battery, shots were also heard to the left in the forest, and since it was too far to the left flank to arrive on time himself, Prince Bagration sent Zherkov there to tell the senior general, the very one who represented the regiment to Kutuzov in Braunau, so that he retreat as quickly as possible behind the ravine, because the right flank will probably not be able to hold the enemy for long. About Tushin and the battalion that covered him was forgotten. Prince Andrey carefully listened to the conversations of Prince Bagration with the chiefs and to the orders given to them and to his surprise noticed that no orders were given, and that Prince Bagration only tried to pretend that everything that was done out of necessity, by chance and by the will of private chiefs, that all this was done, at least not by his order, but in accordance with his intentions. Thanks to the tact that Prince Bagration showed, Prince Andrei noticed that, despite this accident of events and their independence from the will of the chief, his presence did a lot. The chiefs, with frustrated faces, drove up to Prince Bagration, became calm, soldiers and officers greeted him cheerfully and became livelier in his presence and, apparently, flaunting their courage in front of him.

Prince Bagration, having driven to the highest point of our right flank, began to descend from top to bottom, where rolling shooting was heard and nothing could be seen from the powder smoke. The closer they got to the ravine, the less they could see, but the more sensitive the proximity of the actual battlefield became. The wounded began to meet them. One with a bloody head, without a hat, was dragged by two soldiers by the arms. He wheezed and spat. The bullet hit, apparently, in the mouth or throat. Another, who met him, walked briskly alone, without a gun, groaning loudly and waving his hand from fresh pain, from which blood poured, as from a glass, onto his greatcoat. His face seemed more frightened than suffering. He was wounded a minute ago. Having crossed the road, they began to descend steeply and on the descent they saw several people who were lying; they were met by a crowd of soldiers, some of whom were not wounded. The soldiers walked up the mountain, breathing heavily, and despite the general's appearance, they spoke loudly and waved their hands. Ahead, in the smoke, rows of gray greatcoats were already visible, and the officer, seeing Bagration, ran after the soldiers, marching in a crowd, with a cry, demanding that they return. Bagration drove up to the rows, along which shots flickered here and there, drowning out the talk and the shouts of command. All the air was saturated with gunpowder smoke. The faces of the soldiers were all smoked with gunpowder and revived. Some threw them with ramrods, others sprinkled them on the shelves, took out charges from their bags, and still others fired. But at whom they were shooting, it was not visible from the powder smoke, not carried away by the wind. Pleasant sounds of buzzing and whistling were heard quite often. "What it is? - thought Prince Andrew, approaching this crowd of soldiers. - It can't be an attack because they don't move; there can be no carré: they are not so worth it. "
A thin, weak-looking old man, a regimental commander, with a pleasant smile, with eyelids that more than half closed his old eyes, giving him a meek look, drove up to Prince Bagration and received him as the host of a dear guest. He reported to Prince Bagration that there was a French cavalry attack against his regiment, but that, although this attack was repulsed, the regiment lost more than half of its men. The regimental commander said that the attack was repulsed, having come up with this military name for what was happening in his regiment; but he himself did not really know what was happening in that half hour in the troops entrusted to him, and he could not say with certainty whether the attack was repulsed or his regiment was defeated by the attack. At the beginning of the action, he knew only that rounds and grenades began to fly around his regiment and beat people, that then someone shouted: "cavalry", and ours began to shoot. And they still fired not at the cavalry, which had disappeared, but at the French footmen, who appeared in the hollow and fired at ours. Prince Bagration bowed his head as a sign that all this was exactly as he wished and expected. Turning to the adjutant, he ordered him to bring from the mountain two battalions of the 6th Jaeger, which they had just passed by. Prince Andrew was struck at that moment by the change in the person of Prince Bagration. His face expressed that concentrated and happy determination that one has when he is ready to throw himself into the water on a hot day and takes his last run. There were neither sleepy dull eyes, nor a feigned thoughtful look: round, hard, hawkish eyes looked ahead with enthusiasm and somewhat contemptuously, obviously not stopping at anything, although his movements remained the same slowness and regularity.
The regimental commander turned to Prince Bagration, begging him to drive back, as it was too dangerous here. "Have mercy, your Excellency, for God's sake!" he spoke, looking for confirmation at the officer of the suite, who turned away from him. "Here, if you please see!" He made it possible to notice the bullets, which incessantly squealed, sang and whistled around them. He spoke in such a tone of request and reproach with which the carpenter says to the master who took up the ax: "Our business is usual, and you will grease your hands." He spoke as if he himself could not be killed by these bullets, and his half-closed eyes gave his words an even more convincing expression. The headquarters officer joined in the exhortations of the regimental commander; but Prince Bagration did not answer them and only ordered them to stop shooting and line up in such a way as to make room for the approaching two battalions. While he spoke, as if with an invisible hand stretched from right to left, from the rising wind, a canopy of smoke that hid the ravine, and the opposite mountain with the French moving along it opened up in front of them. All eyes were involuntarily fixed on this French column, moving towards us and meandering along the terrain. The furry caps of the soldiers were already visible; it was already possible to distinguish officers from privates; you could see how their banner flapped against the shaft.

Every year the population of Russian cities is increasing. Demography is one of the main economic indicators of urban development, so it is important to track the dynamics of population changes. INNOV has prepared a list of the largest cities in Russia. The main indicator was the population size of cities.

According to Rosstat, in Russia big cities can be divided into several groups according to the size of the population. Among them are cities with a population of 1.5 million to 500 thousand inhabitants (15 cities), 43 cities - with a population of 500 thousand inhabitants to 250 thousand inhabitants, and 90 cities with a population of 250 thousand to 100 thousand people.

The largest cities are Moscow and St. Petersburg. INNOV talked about this earlier.
