The main problems of the socio-economic situation of the cities of the Yamal-Nenets Autonomous District, which are primarily connected with the narrow raw material specialization of their economy, are considered in the article. The search for innovative ways of development of cities being resource centers of the Arctic zone of the Russian Federation was carried out. The authors substantiate the need to move from the old concepts of industrial development to neoindustrialization. The methodological basis for achieving the goals set in the article are the system approach and statistical methods of analysis.
