Introduction: the author studies character traits of a person committing corruption crimes in conurbations. Materials and Methods: the author based on the Russian criminalist works in the given area; used general and specific research methods that provided an opportunity to analyze and generalize materials from various sources. Literature Review: G.A. Avanesov, Y.M. Antonyan, B.V. Volzhenkin, A.A. Herzenzon, P.S. Dagel, A.I. Dolgova, V.N. Kudryavtsev, N.F. Kuznetsova, V.F. Lapshin, V.S. Ovchinsky, V.E. Eminov, D.A. Shestakov, and others contributed to the development of criminological theory of character traits of a criminal and their various types. Results: criminological traits of a person committing corruption crimes in conurbations are linked with a wide range of specific determinants of corruption crimes in conurbations. Lack of corruption statistical recording in territorial authorities and their legal uncertainty make it difficult to research the offender. This complicates the development an effective response to corruption in conurbations of the Russian Federation. Discussion and Conclusions: there are no comprehensive studies of the person committing corruption crimes in conurbations, which is due to both methodological problems of the research approach to the resulting spatial and environmental specifics of agglomerations, and the lack of data on criminologically significant characteristics and properties of such a person.
