Abstract The population of many cities around the world is declining, and the low birth rate and aging population are predicted to become more severe. Accordingly, the concept of a shringking city began to emerge, and related studies are being conducted in Korea. However, existing studies have the following limitations. First, the spatial scope of the analysis target was mainly limited to a single city, so the connection with the surrounding area could not be reflected. Cities have the property of growing through connection with surrounding areas, but existing studies do not consider the connection with surrounding areas, so it is difficult to properly grasp the characteristics of cities. Second, by focusing on the city area, the county area was omitted. Compared to the city area, the county area has a higher population reduction rate and poor environment, so research including the county area is needed. Third, they did not pay much attention to the movement of the population, mainly focusing on the decrease of the population. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to overcome the limitations of existing studies, to present a standard for understanding the phenomenon of urban shrinkage in more detail, and to analyze the types of shrinking cities and derive their characteristics. As a result of analyzing the increase/decrease rate of the population and the movement of the population as main variables, it can be classified into five types, and the characteristics can be divided into fixed type, connected type, internal outflow type, metropolitan area type, and congested type. Through this, it can be used as basic data for urban policies tailored to each city.
