Abstract
The paper considers the ratio of the transport factor and the types of development of settlements in the suburban area of the Moscow capital region. The purpose of this research is to study the specific features of the development of settlements in various radial directions from the node (core) of Moscow capital region – the Moscow city. Data from publicly available electronic maps were used, including data from the public cadastral map. Historical and socio-economic prerequisites for the formation of various types of development along radial transport axes (public roads of regional and federal significance connecting Moscow with the territory of the Moscow region and other regions of Russia) are considered. Conclusions about the general and specific features of development along different directions at different distances from Moscow are drawn. The research confirms the hypothesis that the ratio of certain types of residential development along various highways differs from place to place depending on the time of the origin of the transport routes themselves, on the economically determined choice of investors, and in recent years – on the environmentally determined choice of the population.
Highlights
The transport factor is one of the most important for the formation of the settlement system both through the level of transport development of the territory, and taking into account the variety of forms of transport accessibility and connectivity of spatial elements of the territory
The near Moscow region and its Eastern sector fall under the definition of “area of continuous development of the territory” [1]

Summary
The transport factor is one of the most important for the formation of the settlement system both through the level of transport development of the territory, and taking into account the variety of forms of transport accessibility and connectivity of spatial elements of the territory. According to S.A. Tarkhov, the near Moscow region and its Eastern sector fall under the definition of “area of continuous development of the territory” [1]. The current level of development of the territory was formed over a long historical period. During several centuries and decades of the XX century, there are several forms and stages of formation and development of suburban areas of large cities [1, 2]
