ABSTRACT A comparison of Arctic cities in Russia with their counterparts in the southern parts of the country suggests that there are no significant differences in the degree of employment specialization or in many indicators of social amenities and services. The most important distinguishing feature of Arctic cities in Russia is the high mobility of their populations and the relative ease with which they move. The mobility of the Arctic population should be recognized as a kind of safety valve for the Arctic cities, underpinning their resilience in the face of changes in economic conditions.

人口流动以及俄罗斯北极地区的城市与俄罗斯南部的城市之间的对比

摘要将俄罗斯的北极城市与该国南部的北极城市进行比较后，发现就业专业化程度或许多社会便利设施和服务指标没有显着差异。俄罗斯北极城市最重要的区别特征是其人口的高度流动性和迁徙的相对便利性。北极人口的流动性应被视为北极城市的一种安全阀，在面对经济状况变化的情况下增强其抵御能力。
