Abstract
The analysis of the medical and demographic situation has been conducted in the Central Economic Zone (CEZ) of the Sakha Republic (Yakutia). CEZ includes such districts, as Amginsky, Gorny, Kobyaysky, Megino-Kangalassky, Namsky, Tattinsky, Ust-Aldan, Khangalassky, Churapchinsky and Yakutsk - the capital of the republic. According to medical and geographical zoning, these municipalities are part of a group of central and beyond the Lena River districts. The following medical and demographic indicators: fertility, mortality, natural increase, infant mortality, nuptiality and divorce rate were analyzed. At the same time, the indicators of the natural movement of the population were considered depending on the attribution to the urban or rural population. The medical and demographic situation in the CEZ was revealed as generally favorable. Yakutsk and most of the districts are characterized by a relatively high fertility and low mortality, which offers a positive picture of natural increase. Infant mortality does not raise any particular concern. There are negative indicators of nuptiality in a number of districts.
