The Carpathian region is characterized by the presence of three natural and economic zones - lowland,
foothill, and mountain, which require different approaches to their socio-economic development. Along with
this, mountainous areas are in a state of stagnation, they are characterized by restrictions on the use of
agricultural land, insufficiently extensive transport, and communal infrastructure – as a result, unemployment,
low wages, and labor migration. The purpose of the article is to identify the main trends in the socio-economic
development of mountain settlements in the region. It has been proven that to support mountain settlements and
equalize their socio-economic development, it is necessary to develop a legislative framework and change the
ideology of supporting the development of mountain areas.
