Abstract

Planned, “targeted measures” regarding low-income segments of the population of the Far East, even with a breakdown by years in the demographic concept of the Far East, will not lead to the continuous implementation of measures to improve the living standards of all Far Easterners, without exception. And only in this case, it seems possible to form the stabilization of the number of not just the Far East, including migrants of the last ten years of settlement, but how to stabilize the number of old-timers (migrants who have lived more than 10 years in the Far East). In the so-called “aggregate” migration biography of each Far Eastern family, at least one of its members, at least, is either a migrant or a descendant of a migrant, at least in the third generation. In the foreseeable future, in the coming decades, the possibility of recovering the losses that the Far East suffered during the years of the post-Soviet period as a result of internal Russian migrations to the west of Russia, mainly to the central regions of the European part of the country, is no longer possible. And, even hypothetically, if you imagine this, without preserving the old-age gene pool that has still been preserved and adapted to the Far Eastern specifics, it will not be able to form, in favor of the Far Eastern Federal District, migrants from other federal districts, mainly European territories of the Russian Federation, to form there is a permanent population
