Abstract: Depopulation is a process which affects nowadays, not only the rural areas, but also the urban ones, emphasizing the regional disparities in Romania. The study analyses the dynamics of the urban population and county capital cities in Romania during 1992-2019, but also the evolution of the balance of the changes of domicile and natural balance in the urban regions, processes that influenced directly the urban shrinkage. In the same time, the paper focuses on the dynamics of aging and population average age, considered to be the most important effects of urban depopulation. The graphic and cartographic methods were used to highlight as well as possible the results.
