In this paper the situation of rural population in the region is analyzed on the basis of statistical data, prepared by the Resettlement Department of the Primorsky region in 1913-1915. In particular, the choice of statistical sources, the method of their processing and a number of conclusions are substantiated. The peculiarity of the article is that the conclusions are drawn on the basis of the prepared database of statistical data, as well as combining it with the historical maps of the region, which greatly enhances the methodological capacity through the full use of GIS analysis. As a result, a general calculation of the rural population of the region, its ethnic composition, the level of gender imbalance in different population groups, etc. has been carried out. In addition, it was possible to identify specific geographical criteria defining the most successful locations for farming in the region.
