Abstract: While big cities of the developing world grew intensely the ones in the the developed world had started shrinking, first demographically and then occasionally and consequentially in a physical sense as well. This demographic and economic shrinking process triggers specific consequences in all the areas of the urban development processes. These processes can be characterised by quantitative and qualitative changes whose intensity and impact depend on the extent and the time of the causing progressions. In Europe one of the basic problems of the developed and moderately developed societies located in the central and semi-periphery regions has for decades been the process defined as the demographic crisis: the willingness to bring up more children decreases, the population is declining and ageing. The study shows the new directions of the urban development through the example of some Central European countries.
