This article is devoted to the elucidation of modern trends and geographical laws of urbanization processes in the upper basin of Chirchik – an ecologically and economically important area of the Tashkent region. The study analyzes the dynamics of population growth, changes in the share of urban population, territorial concentration of industrial enterprises and structural changes in infrastructure development. The main directions of urbanization are the intensification of agglomeration processes, the development of recreational function in foothill areas, and the formation of elements of a "green" economy. The article also highlights the contradictions between urbanization processes and increased anthropogenic pressures on the use of natural resources, in particular water and land resources. The scientific work applied analytical approach, which is based on statistical data, cartographic materials and the results of field research.
