Abstract
The article examines the impact of population migration to the capital of the region on the development of the region’s economy as a whole. It is shown that a higher concentration of the population in the capital of the region and the rate of migration of the population to the capital do not lead to an acceleration of economic growth in the region. If more than 40% of the region’s population lives in the capital of the region, then the growth rate of labor productivity in the region is noticeably lower than the average for the Russian Federation. Data analysis shows that labor productivity is growing faster in regions that are losing population, and slower in regions where the population is growing or decreasing slightly. It should be noted that regions with lower labor productivity are losing population faster
