RESIDENTIAL AREA DYNAMICS AND IMPACT ON ENVIRONMENT COMPONENTS IN PITESTI
Journal Title: Present Environment and Sustainable Development - Year 2011, Vol 5, Issue 1
Abstract
The city, according to its size, is a pole of attraction for different groups of people, located both nearby and at a greater distance. The causes of population displacement from rural to urban areas are related to the developed economic activity, the possibility of finding a job, the presence of educational institutions, hospitals, cultural centers and better living conditions. The attraction of the city is consistent with its size, the bigger the city is, more population it attracts, that may be located in more distant locations or smaller towns, while a small city only attracts people from neighboring municipalities. Both industry and population have a major influence on the dynamics of residential space in the city of Pitesti. After 1990 and until now, the city population had three periods of development, namely: a period of growth between 1990 and 1997, followed by a period of stagnation between 1997 and 2001 and a period of decline between 2001 and 2009. To these periods of development have contributed the economic activity, increasing and then restructuring, the natural movement and migration of residents in neighboring municipalities and abroad.
