The article discusses the results of a questionnaire survey of the population of the Kamensk-Uralsky city district conducted in March – May 2022 (the sample size was 892 people). Qualitative methods: analysis of official documents, official websites and the method of visual sociology – photographing sports infrastructure facilities.
