The concepts "morphotype of residential development" and "second home" are defined. Morphotypes of residential development are distinguished by three characteristics: social order, residential unit’s living space per family member, and weighted average time spent on travelling from place of residence to socially most significant areas of the city. Overall, 17 housing morphotypes have been identified, including five types of second housing. The percentage of each type of housing in the total number of residential units in the city is determined. A graph showing growth in the number of garden houses in Penza since the second half of the twentieth century is presented. A diagram of increase in the weighted average number of storeys in residential buildings is provided for some Russian cities. Urban development trends and dependencies in the evolution of the morphological types of urban residential development are revealed, including: permanent growth in living space per family member, globalization and loss of national identity of residential development morphotypes in the late twentieth century, continuing growth in the number of second homes, etc.
