metadata.value: The article presents results of research conducted in the Russian megalopolis of Yekaterinburg. The
  opinion of citizens of the Russian megalopolis about the current state of Russia, as well as the opinion
  of the possible duration of the economic crisis in the country has been investigated in this study. Much
  space is devoted to the social adaptation strategies of the respondents. The research objectives are to
  explore the problems addressing social adaptation of the population of large cities to the economic
  crisis in contemporary Russia and to explore the opinion of this population on the duration of the
  economic crisis in Russia. The research methodology combines qualitative and quantitative methods.
  Empirical basis of the study includes a series of in-depth interviews and a questionnaire carried out in
  2016. The study has revealed that the vast majority of respondents in all age categories are not satisfied with their lives and they believe that Russia is in a deep economic crisis. A basic obstacle preventing
  people from acquiring feeling of satisfaction of their life is their poor financial situation. At the same
  time respondents note that the socio-economic situation continued to worsen steadily in the second
  half of 2015. The study has determined two strategies of social adaptation of this population to an
  economic crisis. They are a cost reduction strategy related to the satisfaction of basic human needs and
  a mobilization potential strategy. The vast majority of respondents use the first strategy. Using these
  strategies allows the population of a megalopolis to provide some adaptive measures to the current
  economic situation. Refs 27. Tables 4.
