The population of Omsk. Change in its number

The city of Omsk occupies a part of the southern territory in Western Siberia of the Russian Federation. This is the administrative center of the Omsk region. As a result of the census of city residents in 2010, the population of Omsk is 1154,000 people. If you look at all the cities of Russia, where there are more than a million inhabitants, then it will take the seventh step in this list, letting ahead two capitals, Samara, Nizhny Novgorod, Novosibirsk and Yekaterinburg. If you take only the millionaires of Siberia, then it will take the second place, losing only to Novosibirsk. As for the density of its residents, it is 14.6 people per 1 sq. Km. kilometer.

The population of Omsk has a variety of roots and origins. Here people of 102 nationalities live. Of course, the main population of the city are Russians. According to various sources, their share in the total population ranges from 82% to 85%. About 3% falls to the share of Ukrainians. The same number lives and Kazakhs. The number of Germans is 1/3 less, and the number of Tatars is 1.9% of the total number of people living in the city. If the other national groups are combined into one, they will be 3% of the total population. Among them, representatives of the Baltic countries - Latvians, Estonians. There are Belarusians and Poles. They, in the main, are inhabited by the southern part of the region. In addition, residents of other countries are populated areas that are located near the railway stations.

Omsk is the largest transport hub. In addition, it is considered one of the largest industrial centers in the region. It has enterprises of various directions, including light industry, food industry, chemical and printing industry, petrochemical and aerospace. The population of Omsk continues to increase from year to year. One of the reasons is migration. So, according to 2012, the number of visitors to the city is 3025 people more than in 2011. Of course, the number of those who have left has increased, however, it is still less than the number of those who came to live permanently in the city. If we take as a percentage of the total number, then the number of those who arrived in the city increased by 18.9%, and those who left - by 18.7%. As you can see, the population of Omsk is growing.

Separately, we should pay attention to natural population growth. According to the final data of 2012, the number of newborns is 1078 people more than the number of the dead. As we can see, the population of the city of Omsk is also growing due to an increase in the birth rate. It should be noted that this is a positive factor for the city. So, according to Omskstat, in the city for the last year, 15564 newborns were registered. One can not deny the fact that mortality has also increased, however, the number of dead residents in 2012 is still lower than the number of people born.

I do not want to resort to cumbersome tables and a large number of figures. Therefore, summing up all the data, we can firmly say - the population of Omsk is growing from year to year. And for comparison, the increase in 2011 was 2462 people, while in 2012 its figure reached 4.103 people. If this figure from year to year will increase at this rate, then in 2015 by the number of people living in the city of Omsk will bypass Samara.
