This is a very complex and multifaceted problem that requires consolidation of local, regional and national efforts. To date, the process of urbanization is reflected in the growth of urban population, concentration of population around the cities, towns greater integration and uptake of resources countryside. In Belgorod region as well as in other regions of the country, there is the process of continuously increasing population of large cities but at the same time the number of rural residents are also experiencing growth. Small and medium-sized cities are not degrading, they develop innovative production, build housing, bring up children.

In the framework of recreational land development laid the creation of cultural and educational recreational areas which combine functions of conservation and recreation systems and examined from the standpoint of imperatives of effective socio-economic development.
