Abstract: Khabarovsk Kray had a population of 1,343,300 in total until January 1, 2011. Population density was 1.7 in a square kilometer and only one fi fth of the average of Russia’s. From 1991 to the early 2011, the Kray’s population decreased by 17.4%. In the several decades to come, no matter what measures Russia will adopt, the situation of further population decrease cannot change. This is because the reproduction of population itself relies on the age composition of population and the legacy of the population situation in the 1990s.
Key words: Khabarovsk Kray; population; decrease
