Na východě sousedí s obcemi ORP Žďár nad Sázavou a Velké Meziříčí, na jihovýchodě s obcemi ORP Třebíč, na jihu s obcemi ORP Telč, na západě s obcemi ORP Pelhřimov a konečně na severozápadě s obcemi ORP Humpolec. Území ORP Jihlava má rozlohu 92 181 hektarů. Je to největších spádové území kraje Vysočina a představuje 13,6 % z rozlohy kraje. Spádový obvod tvoří 79 obcí a na přelomu r. 2009/2010 zde žilo celkem 99 421 obyvatel, což je 19,3 % obyvatel kraje. Hustota zalidnění 100 obyvatel na km² je výrazně vyšší než krajský průměr (100 obyvatel na km2 oproti 76 obyvatel na km2 v celokrajném průměru). V sídle správního obvodu – krajském městě Jihlavě žije 51,5 % obyvatel z celokrajného úhrnu. V městech spádového území (Jihlava, Polná, Třešť, Brtnice) žije sice 62,8 % obyvatel, ale zároveň je ve správním obvodu vysoký podíl malých venkovských obcí. Sídelní struktura správního obvodu ORP Jihlava se vyznačuje velkým výskytem velmi malých obcí se všemi problémy s tím spojenými, tj. malou, nebo zcela chybějící občanskou vybaveností a službami a také zhoršenou dostupností veřejnou dopravou. Tím vznikají malá lokální společenství, která často neumožňují vytvoření ani zcela základní vybavenosti, čímž je negativně poznamenána kvalita života v takových obcích. Ve správním obvodu ORP Jihlava jsou v současnosti čtyři obce ve kterých je méně než 100 obyvatel (Hrutov, Otín, Švábov, Zbinohy).

  • Komentář Vyhodnocení Územních Podmínek Pro Jednotlivé
    Komentář vyhodnocení vyváženosti územních podmínek pro hospodářský rozvoj a pro soudržnost společenství obyvatel území Úvod Území ORP Jihlava bylo v rámci hodnocení vyváženosti územních podmínek v Územně analytických podkladech kraje Vysočina zařazeno mezi území s vysokou soudržností obyvatel a dostatečně rozvinutou ekonomickou základnou a s nižší intenzitou zemědělské výroby. Tento profil se potvrdil i při podrobnější analýze sociodemografických podmínek, bydlení, cestovního ruchu, hospodářských podmínek a životního prostředí v rámci zpracování ÚAP ORP Jihlava. Základní jednotkou hodnocení vyváženosti územních podmínek ORP Jihlava byla obec. Hodnocení bylo rozšířeno i o aktuální informace získané z podrobnější analýzy území jednotlivými specialisty, které doplnily běžně dostupné statistické podklady. Kromě toho byly využity další hodnotící materiály analytického charakteru. Všechny použité informace jsou zpracovány v tabulkových přílohách. Do kartografické podoby byla převedena všechna celková hodnocení pilířů. Údajovou základnu tvoří vybrané dostupné statistické údaje z různých časových úseků posledního desetiletí – viz údaje u ukazatelů (časové informační řady, údaje publikované za obce Českým statistickým úřadem, údaje publikované krajskou reprezentací kraje Vysočina aj.). V některých případech vychází hodnocení z posledního uskutečněného sčítání lidu, domů a bytů v ČR v roce 2011. Dále byly využity veřejně dostupné údaje z Agentury ochrany přírody a krajiny a agentury CENIA a údaje z podkladů poskytnutých zpracovatelem. Indikační
