В статье на основании авторских эмпирических исследований, проведенных в 2017 г. и 2021 г., рассматривается динамика удовлетворенности молодежи г. Казани экологическими и социальными аспектами качества городской среды. Полученные данные свидетельствуют о том, что экологическая обстановка и состояние городской инфраструктуры сохраняют для молодого поколения свою значимость. При сохранении позитивных тенденций относительно большинства показателей, характеризующих экологическую ситуацию, выявлено снижение доли удовлетворенных состоянием водных объектов и санитарным состоянием города. Что касается городской инфраструктуры, то выявлено снижение удовлетворенности ее общим состоянием, а также такими составляющими как количество организованных автостоянок и количество спортивных объектов. Кроме того, в работе анализируются факторы, определяющие привлекательность для молодежи районов города, и выделяются наиболее важные мероприятия, направленные на улучшение качества городской среды. Based on the author's empirical research carried out in 2017 and 2021, the article examines the dynamics of satisfaction of young people in Kazan with the ecological and social aspects of the quality of the urban environment. The data obtained indicate that the ecological situation and the state of the urban infrastructure retain their importance for the younger generation. While maintaining positive trends in relation to most of the indicators characterizing the ecological situation, a decrease in the share of those satisfied with the state of water bodies and the sanitary state of the city was revealed. As for the state of the urban infrastructure, a decrease in satisfaction with its general state, as well as with such components as the number of organized parking lots and the number of sports facilities, was revealed. The work also analyzes the factors that determine the attractiveness of city districts for young people and highlights the most important measures aimed at improving the quality of the urban environment.

The subject of this research is the demand of the Barnaul population for creation of cycling infrastructure. The development of cycling infrastructure not only contributes to solution of the problems of any modern city, but also creates a favorable ecological and social environment. This is  illustrated by such indicators as public health, life expectancy, and increase of working age. Moreover, the ecologically friendly urban environment is beneficial for the development of tourism. Using the quantitative method (questionnaire-based survey), the authors were able to find out the opinion of the Barnaul residents on the creation of urban infrastructure. The research results clearly demonstrate the demand of the Barnaul residents for creation of cycling infrastructure. The following conclusions were made: majority of respondents believe that the of cycle lanes and minimal maintenance service is required throughout the urban space; creation of cycling infrastructure can be a step toward designing a new comfortable urban environment and improve quality of life; implementation of cycle lanes into the urban space in such way that they would connect bedroom suburbs and central part of the city, can be most useful and effective. The conducted analysis testifies that the developed cycling infrastructure can improve transport and ecological situation in the city, but would not fully resolve the problems of socioeconomic nature.

The article examines the organizational basis of modeling entrepreneurial activities in the hospitality industry based on the use of indicators of cadastral assessment of land. The analysis of practical aspects of updating the results of cadastral assessment of lands of settlements of Cherkassy region has been carried out. It is stated that the cadastral assessment should take into account market situations and trends as much as possible. For the territories of localities the term of actualization in the context of revaluation should be minimum and economically justified. It is designated that the updating of the results of the state cadastral assessment of land requires significant modernization aimed at improving the quality of land assessment work and adequate replenishment of budgets at all levels. The mechanism and features of performance of works on actualization of the state cadastral estimation of the lands of settlements in the territory of Cherkassy region have been analyzed. As a result of the study, it has been found that the main disadvantage of modeling the cadastral assessment of land settlements is: the duration of time intervals between rounds of revaluation, which causes rapid aging of information. The reason for this case is related with the financial support of the works and their scale. Mechanisms for prompt updating of information on the value of land for entrepreneurial activities in the hospitality industry in Cherkassy region have been proposed. The considered method of determining the normative monetary valuation of land takes into account the most important indicators of this industry and is practically significant in collecting information and calculating all indicators in conducting cadastral valuation of land for entrepreneurial activities in the hospitality industry of Cherkassy region. The practical significance of the study is to assess the cadastral condition of land and calculate the specific cadastral value of the city of Uman, as the territory where the hospitality industry is the most developed in Cherkassy region. Due to the clarification of the specific indicator of cadastral value, the price of one square meter of such objects will increase which will allow to proportionally increase the tax component and increase the profitability of budgets at the cluster level

The study reveals the aspects that defi ne the concept of “lifestyle”, including the main categories: standard of living, lifestyle, quality of life and lifestyle. Insuffi cient knowledge of the mutual infl uence of people’s “lifestyle” on the typological structure of apartments and residential buildings, on the quality of the urban environment is emphasized. The infl uence of the level of urbanization of the city territory on the characteristics of the “urban lifestyle” is considered. Problematic issues are raised related to the debate on the relationship between building density and comfort and the quality index of the living environment. The main directions of fundamental research in the fi eld of architecture, aimed at the development of new types of buildings, are touched upon. The emphasis is made on the methods of using high-rise buildings for the humanization of the urban environment and the formation of a modern “compact city”.

This paper examines the existing in the Russian Federation approaches to assessing the quality of the urban environment, the concept of the quality index of the urban environment; the analysis of indicators for calculating the quality index of the urban environment and the factors that form the ecological well-being of the urban environment for the local population has been carried out. The territory of the northern industrial hub of Volgograd was chosen as the object of research, in particular, the zone of influence of the ferrous metallurgy enterprise AO “VMK ‘Krasny Oktyabr’”, which has a historically specific location relative to the functional zones of the city. The analysis of the results of monitoring the content of mobile forms of heavy metals in the soil cover, carried out by the method of atomic absorption spectrometry, and the assessment of the general life state of tree green plantations in the territory of the sanitary protection zone of the enterprise based on the enumeration of trees is presented. The identified zone of influence of the enterprise, taking into account the presence of additional sources of pollution of the soil cover and MPC of metals, instead of their background concentrations, extends for 3.5–3.7 km from the border of the enterprise in the form of elongated areas of increased concentrations. Cartographic visualization reveals the presence of two clearly pronounced foci of pollution located to the west of the existing SOC of the enterprise. When assessing the general condition of trees, it is also possible to recognize the worst territory of the test plots located to the west of the operating TWCs in accordance with the directions of the prevailing winds. The data obtained confirm the feasibility of organizing regular monitoring of the soil cover and the state of green forests in the city as one of the directions for assessing the quality of the environment and taking these indicators into account when calculating the quality index of the urban environment.

China Village or Town is an urban region with Chinese as majority of the community. The China Town is located at the old part of the city of Manado and is well known as one of the oldest trade centres in Manado. As one of the urban heritage in the city of Manado, the Chinatown has unique landmarks with temples that are religious buildings for the Chinese community. With time, the quality of the environment has degraded and the image of the Chinatown has become vague.This paper investigates the existing condition of the town through site observation. It then proposes several suggestions with regard to the revitalisation of the Chinatown without discarding its existing function as a one of the trade centres in Manado. It is hoped that the revitalisation of the town would improve the quality of its urban environment that at the end would positively impact the quality of life of its dwellers, and construct the image of the city as a whole.

Due to the development of communication information networks in contemporary cities, and without the interconnection of space units, the quality of the overall urban environment is declining. Simultaneously, the awareness of people sharing such an environment is being lost. In this paper, we address Tsukishima, Tsukuda, Higashiueno, and Tsukiji areas in the historical city of Edo-Tokyo. investigate the district blocks and the environmental recognition of the residents to clarify how cognitive region coalesces as space. The results of our analysis show that the cognitive region will shift from the area where residents live due to the passage of time. There is some concern that the awareness of sharing in the area is decreasing. Based on survey data conducted in 1996 and 2011· 2012, the area of Tsukishima, Tsukiji, Tsukuda, and Higashiueno from the analysis of the resident's environmental perception to evaluate the change process over time, and it was possible to clarify the spread and change of the composition of environmental recognition of residents in historical urban areas (Downtown).
