The Yekaterinburg mayor’s office linked the decline in birth rates to rising household incomes
22 November 2025
The Yekaterinburg mayor’s office stated that the decline in birth rates is associated with the growth of residents’ incomes.
“If you remember the history of the primitive communal system, you should know that the standard of living then was significantly lower than today. There was no medicine, no high technologies, no one flew anywhere on vacation, yet they gave birth to 10–12 children,” the publication Signal.Ural quotes Alexey Pryadein, head of the Department of Economics.
Earlier, it was proposed to return Yekaterinburg first-graders to kindergartens due to a shortage of places in schools.
