Urbanization in Uzbekistan has gained significant momentum in recent decades,
driven by economic reforms, migration, and regional development strategies. This paper
provides a territorial and socio-demographic analysis of urbanization trends across the country,
focusing on spatial disparities, population redistribution, and the challenges of sustainable urban
planning. The study highlights the role of regional centers, rural-to-urban migration, and
government policy in shaping urban growth patterns and demographic transformations in major
cities such as Tashkent, Samarkand, and Fergana.
