Systemic Nature

In modern Russia, organizational and managerial approaches to the development of the housing sector reveal a lack of a systemic nature. The main indicators of the housing sector lag behind the level of many developed countries. In the present article the authors analyze the imbalances presented in the housing industry in Russia and look at future-oriented areas to improve the affordability of housing and the level of urban comfort, based on the belief that the quality of life of the population is largely determined by the availability and quality of housing and the state of the residential environment.
