In the modern world, the development of the Arctic and Antarctic regions is becoming increasingly important due to their resource attractiveness and, in the context of global warming, their potential use as new routes of transport connection. Of course, in this context, the development of infrastructure is of a particular importance, for example, in the Russian Federation, due to the raw material orientation of the economy, many cities located in the Arctic and Subarctic zones are built around a city-forming enterprise aimed at the extraction or processing of raw materials, such situation results in a fairly substantial list of problematic questions. This study focuses on the analysis of the position and role of single-industry cities in the development of the Arctic region of the Russian Federation. The conclusions and results obtained in the following work may be interesting in the context of studying impact factors on the development of the Arctic and Subarctic territories of Russia. Also, this work is aimed at developing proposals for changing the situation in single-industry cities in order to accelerate the development of this region and improve the overall economic situation, in the aggregate, this can be useful in developing territorial development strategies not only for government bodies and programs, but also for private companies interested in investing in development projects.
