Abstract: In the context of a process of expanding urbanization, societies tend to reflect more on the role that rural space, including the rural population, will play in the future. To what extent will the rural area maintain its fundamental functions? To what extent will the rural population adapt to change and find its place in a world with a growing urban character? Things are even more complex in the case of Romania, for a long time our country being an agricultural one. Even at the present time, Romania disposes of a generous rural area and of a considerable rural population. Our study aims to capture the evolution of the rural population in the last decade, respectively to identify whether, compared to previous periods, the same trends have been maintained, and if there have been changes, to capture what those were.
