Razgrad

Although wages for workers in the district are relatively high, the poverty rate is among the three highest in the country, with nearly 35% of the population living below the poverty line. Employment is growing slowly and cannot compensate for the large lag in the coefficient, and the educational structure of the workforce is relatively unfavourable. Domestic and foreign investment are increasing but remain relatively low. Razgrad is among the districts with the weakest infrastructure development, with the lowest share of the population with access to public sewerage in the country (43% compared to 75% nationally). Of the local taxes considered, only the average rate on non-residential real estate owned by legal entities is high. Local financial revenues remain insufficient.

The demographic picture is unfavourable, with Razgrad being the district that loses the most population in 2024, with a sharp decline in mechanical growth. Performance on educational indicators is also unsatisfactory, mainly due to the relatively low results of students. Healthcare suffers from a shortage of medical doctors. The administration of justice is relatively fast, and the clearance rate for crimes is high. An extremely low proportion of household waste is sent for treatment and recycling. Cultural life is not particularly intense, and tourism is underdeveloped.
