HOUSING CONSTRUCTION IN MOSCOW AGGLOMERATION: SPATIAL CONSEQUENCES
Abstract
Spatial trajectories of the Moscow agglomeration development in the course of housing construction
are analyzed, and the extensive and intensive trends are revealed. A concentric model of Moscow housing market is suggested basing on the spatial differentiation of housing construction intensity, cost of apartments and the initial genesis of plots used for construction. Two types of housing markets are identified, i.e. the integrated «Moscow» market including the city of Moscow and its immediate suburbs, and a number of isolated markets on the periphery of the agglomeration. The relationship between the housing construction and the migration of Russia’s population into Moscow agglomeration is shown.
