Abstract
The article raises the issue of the dynamics of human capital of rural Russia of the Central Federal District with the example of the Yaroslavl area in conditions of depopulation and growth of return migration. On the basis of the results of the empirical research, using the methods of in-depth interviews and the search survey according to the structured questionnaire, the author examines the way of life and living conditions of the rural population from the perspective of the past, present and future. The article identifies key problems that are acutely felt and reflected by the inhabitants of the village: lack of jobs, opportunities for decent work in the countryside, poor roads and medical services, a low level of amenities and recreational activities. Also, based on the reasoning of the respondents, the author points out some positive aspects of life in rural areas: good ecology, availability and operation of kindergartens and schools, a relatively high level of development of digital technologies, a moderate, peaceful life. In conclusion, the author highlights the key factors influencing the lifestyle and quality of life of rural residents and concludes that, in the light of this situation, without State policy intervention in the development and preservation of human capital, Depopulation and atrophy of rural areas will continue.

Summary
Изменения образа и условий жизни населения сельской местности ЦФО России изводства, оживления рыночной экономики, формирования современных жилых ареалов, создавая точки роста. С другой стороны, она может быть отрицательной, поскольку приводит к опустению больших территорий, обветшанию и разрушению инфраструктуры сельской местности, неравномерному развитию, колоссальным разрывам уровня и качества жизни города и села. Эти процессы мы и наблюдаем с точки зрения количественной динамики человеческого капитала: происходит его наращивание в городских агломерациях и критическое снижение за их пределами, чреватое инфраструктурной, производственной, а затем и социальной атрофией сельской местности. Если миграция из сельской местности происходит естественным путём, не требующим государственных программ и вливания средств, то возрождение безлюдных сельских территорий потребует как мотивации и специальных программ, так и больших финансовых вливаний, направленных на восстановление обветшавшей или разрушенной социальной инфраструктуры. Обозначенные выше обстоятельства оказывают непосредственное влияние на формирование человеческого капитала в сельской местности и позволяют объяснить ряд эмпирических закономерностей, изученных нами в ходе вторичного анализа данных, и тенденций, которые будут описаны ниже
