280 тысяч человек. Это город в городе. Было бы хорошо применить модель "Аг шехер" для строительства городов и создания рабочих мест на периферии, чтобы разгрузить Баку. Причем необходимо построить несколько таких городов на 500/ 300/200 тысяч человек в различных климатических зонах страны, только так можно будет решит проблему инфраструктурного хаоса Баку. То что полнаселения страны живет в одном городе, это просто катастрофа.
