Abstract

U radu se istražuje socioekonomska gradska regija Varaždina. Na temelju podataka Popisa stanovništva 2001. godine pomoću zadanih varijabli udjela poljoprivrednika, udjela zaposlenog u aktivnom stanovništvu i udjela dnevnih cirkulanata u zaposlenom stanovništvu na teritorijalno-administrativnoj jedinici naselje definira se gradska regija. Nakon izdvajanja utvrđeno je da se regija sastoji od 88 naselja, od kojih je jedno naselje (Varaždin) gradskog tipa, dok su ostala jače ili slabije urbanizirana ili ruralnog karaktera. Također se analizira koncentracija stanovništva u odnosu matični grad Varaždin, njegova okolica i varaždnska aglomeracija i dolazi do podatka da je za razliku od ostalih većih gradskih regija Hrvatske veći udio stanovništva u okolici nego matičnom gradu. No, to nije rezultat visokog stupnja razvijenosti gradske regije, već duge tradicije agrarne naseljenosti, pa i prenaseljenosti sjeverne Hrvatske. Analiziraju se demografske i socioekonomske promjene u zadnjih pedesetak godina i prema tome gradska regija zadnjih dvadesetak godina bilježi blagi pad broja stanovnika, ali se s druge strane intenzivno socioekonomski preobrazila, odnosno bliža okolica oko grada Varaždina bilježi jaču socioekonomsku, fizionomsku i funkcionalnu preobrazbu.

Abstract (english)

The paper analyses socioeconomic city region of Varaždin. With the data gathered from Census 2001 socioeconomic city region is defined on territorial unit of settlement by three variables: percentage of agriculturally oriented population, percentage of employed population in active population and the most important one, percentage of employed migrants that are on daily basis traveling to work to the city of Varaždin. After defining limits of city region, 88 settlements are found in the region, with only one urban settlement (Varaždin) and all of the others less urbanized or rural. Analyses is also made in concentration of population in relation to central city, surrounding and whole agglomeration and the conclusion is that although the surrounding of the agglomeration has more population than central city, that is not strictly a sign of development of the city region, but in some, a result of long tradition of agricultural settlement of the area of north Croatia. In the last twenty years there is a decline in number of inhabitants in the city region, but in the same time, it has, especially settlments nearer to the Varaždin, socioeconomically developed, which can be seen in physical, as well as, functional aspect.
