Abstract
The successful carrying out by the Arctic regions of Yakutia of their resource, transport, climatic, and military functions within the framework of the implementation of state policy and the organization of large-scale strategic projects requires the availability of human resources. The main characteristics of the population of the Arctic regions of Yakutia include a high degree of urbanization with low population, a high proportion of women, and a high level of migration. Demographic processes occurring in the Arctic regions are heterogeneous between the territories, this is primarily due to their spatial development and resource potential. The basis of the study is demographic processes occurring on the territory of the Prilenskaya group of districts belonging to the Arctic zone of Yakutia. The article considers the impact of natural resource and economic potential on the socio-demographic situation in this group of districts. The key demographic trends, such as decreasing birth rate, increasing mortality, changes in the population structure by sex and age and other factors affecting the demographic situation are identified. The analysis of the average salary has confirmed the tendency to reduce its territorial differences, while the salary excluding regional payments in most of the Arctic regions become much lower than the national average. It is emphasized that the efficiency of their socio-economic development of municipal districts depends on the provision of the Arctic territories with labor resources. Based on the results of the study, it is concluded that comprehensive and systematic state support is necessary to preserve the population of the Arctic regions of Yakutia.
