Subject. This article discusses the issues of ensuring balanced socio-economic development at the local level. Objectives. The article aims to develop a methodology for classifying municipal districts according to the level of social development. Methods. For the study, I used the methods of mathematical analysis. Results. Based on the analysis of indicators for the period 2010–2021, the article divides the Central regions of the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia) into three clusters. Most of the districts are included in the second cluster, corresponding to the average level of social development. This indicates that there are insignificant differences in social development indicators between the Central regions of the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia). Relevance. The developed classification and ranking help obtain additional data necessary for adjusting the programmes of social development of territories.

Subject. This article discusses the importance of special economic zones in solving problems related to attracting investors, supporting regions of concern, and creating regional growth poles. Objectives. The article aims to consider the impact of economic and geographical location, characteristics of the region of base, the investment policy implementation quality, and the level of tax burden on the efficiency of Russian special economic zones. Methods. For the study, we used the Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) technique, and a regression analysis. Results. The article presents the results of the analysis of the effectiveness of budget investments in the infrastructure of various special economic zones in Russia. Conclusions. The quality of the implementation of the regional investment policy has the most significant impact on the success of the development of special economic zones. Improving the methodology for assessing the effectiveness of special economic zones requires the collection and use of information on the results of scientific, technical and innovative activities of residents, taking into account the practices of the Ministry of Science and Technology of China.

Subject. This article discusses the issues of industrial development of the Chechen Republic and efficient use of resources. Objectives. The article aims to comprehensively assess the economic potential of the plains and mountainous areas of the Chechen Republic, and search for ways to optimize the spatial organization of economic activities in the region. Methods. For the study, I used economic and statistical research methods. Results. The article finds certain imbalances of the spatial distribution of economic activities in the Chechen Republic and states that the mining and processing industries are thinly represented in the Chechen Republic's economy. Conclusions. To accelerate the economic advancement of the Chechen Republic, it is necessary to create a modern science-intensive industrial base. The development of industry is closely related to agglomeration processes. To solve the identified problems in the spatial organization of economic activities of the Chechen Republic, it is necessary to disperse production among municipalities in accordance with the potential capabilities of the areas, excluding significant imbalances.
