Small towns of East Kazakhstan were first considered as a separate complex of administrative-territorial objects in the context of the period 1925-1953, when the structure of cities was laid, which became the basis of long-term development and influencing modern realities. The purpose of the study is to analyze the patterns and identify the main stages of the historical development of small towns in East Kazakhstan in the context of the socioeconomic policy of the state from 1925-1953 and to determine the reasons for the creation and development of small towns in the region. The following methods were used in the article: induction, comparative-analytical, systematization deduction, analysis, synthesis, historical-logical and comparative. The network of small towns of Eastern Kazakhstan was defined and the main stages of the socioeconomic development of the state from 1925-1953 were highlighted, the connection of the development of cities with each of the stages and factors that had a decisive influence on the formation of small towns and the development prospects were identified.
