Urban development and urban planning

The growth of the urban population in Armenia has closely reflected the country’s changing social and economic circumstances over the past century. Industrialization during the Soviet period from the 1920s onwards, combined with the mass influx of refugees from Eastern Turkey and, later, from the Armenian diaspora in the Middle East, led to rapid urban population growth until the late 1980s.
