Contribution to the Discussion on Typology of the Settlements of Serbia

Summary/Abstract: The paper is devoted to design the model of differentiation of the settlements in Serbia. Conditions have been proposed which the settlement should fulfill in order to belong to the category of urban settlements, suburban settlements or rural centres. In the territory of Serbia 190 urban settlements, 338 suburban settlements, 51 rural centres and 4130 rural settlements were registered. The identification of urban and suburban settlements as well as rural centers, and the definition of a category of rural settlements, will make it easier for policy-makers to define developmental measures, which will certainly vary significantly depending on the type of settlement they relate to. The proposed typology of the settlements will facilitate the examination of the demographic and socioeconomic position and potential of urban, suburban, developed rural and rural settlements and will contribute to a more precise definition of the strategic goals of development at the national and lower territorial levels.
