The purpose of the study was to study the indicators of growth and development of urban children and adolescents from the families of parents-townspeople and parents who moved to the city from rural areas. On the materials of the surveys conducted in 2005-2011 russian children and adolescents 7-17 years old in Arkhangelsk, Saratov and Moscow (1668 boys, 1602 girls), the calculated some characteristics of latitudinal dimensions relative to body length; ratio of breast diameters, body segments, body mass index (BMI). A procedure for data normalization and one-way ANOVA analysis were used. In Arkhangelsk, girls, both of whose parents were born in rural areas, had almost all the indicators characterizing the "strength of addition", compared to girls whose parents were born in the city, the differences were statistically significant for the relationship body/leg (p=0.010), in boys the differences had a tendency character. In Saratov, no statistically significant differences were found among girls, boys from families of newcomers exceeded boys from families townspeople in terms of relative chest and waist circumference and relative width of shoulders and pelvis (p=0.030). Moscow girls and boys, whose parents were newcomers, statistically significantly exceeded the children-the townspeople in the 2nd generation in terms of relative girths of the chest, width of the shoulders (boys, p=0.032) and waist (girls, p=0.040). Irrespective of the urbanization level of the city, the children of parents who come from rural areas, growing up in urban conditions, they tend to be more brachyomorphous, they had on average more relative chest and waist circumferences, shoulder and pelvis diameters, ratio of longitudinal breast diameter to transverse diameter, BMI, but less relative length of the leg. The obtained results as a whole demonstrated the stability of the complex of features that characterized the more "strong" physique of the rural population in comparison with the urban one.
