Where to move for permanent residence in Russia - where it’s warm and there’s work. The best cities in Russia to live in

If you are going to go to Moscow or buy an apartment in the capital, you should know which areas are the best and which are the worst.

Moscow districts by comfort of living

All Moscow districts can be divided by level of comfort.

You can determine whether an area is comfortable to live in using the following criteria:

1. Population density;
2. Ecological situation;
3. Transport interchange (distance from the metro, traffic jams);
4. Infrastructure;
5. Crime level;
6. Number of new buildings and dilapidated housing;
7. Improvement of the area.

The worst areas of Moscow

In such areas, the cost of apartments is much lower than, for example, in the center, but living in them is not only uncomfortable, but also dangerous.

If we talk about the worst areas, they are classified according to the following criteria:

• Crime;
• Bad ecology;
• Near the smoke zone;
• Presence of migrants;
• Regular transport collapses;
• Bad position, according to the compass rose;
• The metro is located far away;
• There is a shortage of places in kindergartens and other government institutions.

Kapotnya

One of the worst areas of Moscow can be called Kapotnya, which until recently was considered a workers’ village.

This city can be called one of the worst for the following reasons:

1. There is an oil refinery here;
2. The Moscow Ring Road is located nearby;
3. Nearby CHPP-22.

This area is not developed at all, and it is difficult to get from here to any corner of Moscow. Even leaving the villages near Moscow is much easier than leaving this area.

There is also no infrastructure here. About 30,000 people live here, and there are only four schools and the same number of kindergartens in the entire city. There is also a correctional colony located here, which makes this area the worst place to live.

All the houses here are over fifty years old and are of poor quality, mostly panel houses. Today migrants live here.

Nekrasovka

Nekrasovka can also be classified as a bad area. In fact, this area is part of Lyubertsy and is located far beyond the Moscow Ring Road. Six years ago, entire plots of land were given over to the construction of new buildings. But to this day, construction is still underway - and no one knows how many years it will take. But one thing is clear: that construction is being delayed only because the area is contaminated.

As for the transport interchange, it also leaves much to be desired. Although this year it is planned to build a metro line.

Western Biryulyovo

Another bad area is Western Biryulyovo. Today, hardly anyone would want to live in this area, since there are a lot of migrants here who, due to the fact that they cannot live normally, often commit crimes.

The infrastructure here is also bad - there are only seven schools and 16 kindergartens, although almost one hundred thousand people live. There is also no transport interchange or metro, so you have to enter the area along busy highways.

The environmental situation here is terrible, because the following objects are located nearby:

• CHPP-26;
• Waste incineration plant;
• Brewery.

Pechatniki District

The Pechatniki district can be called one of the worst in Moscow. The “advantages” of this area lie in the fact that there is an industrial zone here, which includes more than fifty enterprises. This place is also considered the coldest and lowest in all of Moscow.

There is an unfavorable wind rose here, so all the fumes are blown here. In addition, there is a shortage of retail space and medical services.

Golyanov District

The transport interchange is poorly developed here and although there is a metro, it is impossible to get to it during rush hour. And there are always a lot of people at the station, which makes it uncomfortable. Many people consider Golyanovo to be the criminal center of Moscow. Today, robberies and robberies are frequent here. Thermal Power Plant-23 is also located here.

The most depressive district in Moscow

The southeast of Moscow is its most depressed area:

• Speaking from a historical point of view, then it is considered depressed due to the fact that about seventy percent of the territory is occupied by industry;
• During the Soviet Union, housing was built here for public sector workers. Therefore, the worst houses and dirty enterprises are concentrated in this part of Moscow;
• The wind rose is the worst in this area– this is where the wind blows gases from all over Moscow. In addition, there are no forests, steppes, parks or alleys where you could have a good time;
• There are many thermal power plants located in this part of Moscow, which like a magnet attract emigrants, because of whom the crime of the area suffers;
• As statistics show, seventy percent of crime in Moscow occurs in this area. Most often, thefts and break-ins occur here.
• There are many landfills here and radioactive enterprises that heavily pollute the environment.

When choosing the best place to live in Russia, you should pay attention to the rating of the most comfortable and favorable cities, however, the final decision should be made based on personal preferences.

When thinking about moving, people strive to choose the best place to live in Russia; this is, as a rule, the most comfortable and favorable city in every sense. Which region of Russia is better to move to? Russians and foreigners often ask this question for a variety of reasons. Someone is looking for the best, most favorable climate, someone is looking for a clean ecological environment, someone is trying to find a suitable area due to chronic diseases, someone is simply looking for a job in their specialty.

It's hardest for big cities to be among the cleanest. This is not surprising, because heavy industry is developed in megacities, the roads are overloaded with cars, and the streets are littered with garbage. Of course, this causes great harm to the environment.

The cleanest sparsely populated cities in Russia

The city of Derbent is located in a very picturesque area. Here both water and air meet the standards. There are practically no enterprises that harm the environment. Those that exist mainly belong to the food industry, which does not cause much harm. The streets are always neat: the local population is very respectful of the places in which they live and honors their culture.

In recent years, the environmental situation in Taganrog has improved greatly. The city has a developed industry that damages the environment. In response to this, a number of serious decisions are being made, the purpose of which is to improve the environment. These events really made it possible to effectively improve the environmental situation. In addition, proximity to the Sea of ​​Azov and its ability to self-purify play an important role. Taganrog is a fairly clean, comfortable and well-kept city with dozens of beaches, a large number of parks, squares, and green areas. It should also be noted that the climate is mild and favorable. The relatively low air humidity is perfectly complemented by the proximity to the sea.

Thus, Russia has a fairly large selection of cities with favorable and comfortable living conditions. Which one is better, everyone determines for themselves. If successful employment and high wages come first, preference should be given to large metropolitan areas. In cases where environmental conditions and health are particularly important selection criteria, it is better to choose a sparsely populated city for moving.

When choosing a locality for further residence, we advise you to look at the rating of Russian cities.

10 Orenburg

The population living in the city of Orenburg is more than five hundred and sixty thousand people. It is among the top 10 best cities to live in Russia, completing the top ten. The city took 4th place in the “quality housing services” category. Having entered the top 10 in the field of healthcare and security, it was ranked 8th. The city also took 10th place in terms of the state of the road industry. And only in the field of education Orenburg occupies 32nd place in the ranking.

9 Novosibirsk

In ninth position is the city of Novosibirsk with a population of over 1.5 million people. Novosibirsk ranks eighth out of the top ten for the quality of education. 12th place in the ranking was given to the condition and quality of service of the housing stock. 17th position – for the state of the road industry. The quality of healthcare and security occupies only 27th place.

8 Krasnoyarsk

The city's population, ranked 8th for living, has exceeded the million mark. It is not included in the top ten in terms of the state of the road industry, but it occupies a strong 22nd place. It is not far behind in the area of ​​housing maintenance – 28th position. 30th place was given for the quality of the education sector and 32nd for merits in the field of health care and security.

7 Ekaterinburg

The city with a population of one and a half million took 7th position. It is also among the top ten for the quality of education – it ranks 6th. 13th place was rightfully given for the good condition and quality of maintenance of the housing stock, 15th for the condition of the road infrastructure. And, not so bad, at 24th position the city provides security and health services.

6 Chelyabinsk

Of the ten largest cities, the city of Chelyabinsk ranks 6th in the ranking of the best cities. It is in the Top 10 in almost all “nominations”. So, for example: silver (2nd place) – education, bronze (3rd place) – road services, top ten (10th place) – housing services. And only in the field of healthcare and security it ranks 20th.

5 St. Petersburg

The top five best cities in Russia for living opens with a city of more than five million people (skipping ahead of Moscow and London) - St. Petersburg. 4th place is shared by the spheres of education, health care and security. 6th place out of ten was given to the condition and quality of work of the housing stock; a close thirteenth place was awarded to the road industry.

4 Krasnodar

The city, bordering the Kuban River, firmly holds fourth position in the ranking of the best, being, by definition, in the top five. It is included in the top ten ratings for the healthcare and security sector, ranking third, and the housing sector, ranking fifth. Next, almost a dozen of the best - 11th position - for the state of the road infrastructure and 13th place the city went to the niche of quality education.

3 Kazan

The prize - bronze - was awarded to the city of Kazan with a population of approximately 1.2 million people. So, the city on the Volga takes an honorable third position in the ranking of the best places to live in great Russia. If not for the healthcare niche, which ranked 16th, the city would have been in the Top 10 for all indicators. The state of the road industry is rated in 6th place, 7th place was awarded for merits in the education niche, and the estimated merits of the condition and quality of housing services are in eighth place.

2 Moscow

The capital's “silver” life in Russia is in second place, but gold rightfully belongs to the capital in terms of population. Going around all the cities not only in Russia, but also in Europe, the number varies around the figure of 12 million people. Although, independent sociological surveys of citizens give first place in the ranking of the best cities to live in Moscow, considering it the most convenient city to live. Third place in Moscow is deserved by the condition and quality of service of the housing stock, leaving Naberezhnye Chelny and Tyumen ahead. The state of the road industry is ranked 8th; the health and safety sector is ranked 14th. A less joyful situation affected the education sector, occupying the last position in the ranking. Perhaps due to fierce competition for places in prestigious educational institutions, public education is not valued so highly.

The reputable analytical company Economist Intelligence Unit has published a rating best cities in the world to live for 2017. The company's experts assessed them on 30 parameters - crime, education, military conflicts, healthcare, infrastructure, education, ecology, diversity of cultural life...

According to the Economist Intelligence Unit, the worst situation here is with such indicators as “Stability and “Infrastructure”.

Russia is a very large country, occupying a vast territory. It has everything: the endless north, the tropical southern climate, noisy megacities and small villages, industrial and tourist cities. Therefore, in order to say where is the best place to live in Russia, you need to decide on the criteria for evaluating cities.

Main criteria

Comfortable living in any country in the world depends on several main factors. There are nine of them in total. At the same time, you need to understand that different criteria are decisive for each person - someone would like to build a career in a metropolis and is concerned about the number of jobs more than the environmental situation in the city. And some people dream of living in a favorable climate and raising children in a safe small town.

Table. Comfort criteria for Russian cities.

Taking these criteria into account, you can easily evaluate any city, as well as highlight the cities in which living is most comfortable.

Ecology

Read useful information + tips in our new article - “Where is the best place to live in Crimea?”

It is obvious that a person’s main wealth is his health. And it is closely connected with the conditions in which he lives: with the air he breathes into himself, the water he drinks, the food he eats. In polluted cities, there is a constant release of toxic waste into the air, soil and water bodies, which, accumulating in the human body, eventually leads to illness and even death. In cities with poor environmental conditions, cases of pathologies in newborn children are frequent.

Large industrial cities most often suffer from industrial waste and exhaust gases.. Since they provide many jobs, many people come there, and the number of transport increases. Over time, the concentration of harmful emissions becomes critical.

Therefore, when talking about the best areas to live, we need to highlight the cleanest, unpolluted cities. In addition, the frequency of cleaning and landscaping of populated areas is taken into account. According to these criteria, the leaders on Russian territory are:

• Pskov region;
• Smolensk region;
• Murmansk region;
• Nizhnevartovsk region;
• cities of the Krasnodar region, especially Sochi.

Pskov took a well-deserved first place, because it is not only clean and calm, but also coniferous forests help purify the air and even make it healing. Park areas, flower beds and green spaces also make it very beautiful.

It is also necessary to mention the unfavorable places in Russia from the point of view of pollution:

• Norilsk;
• Central region;
• Asbestos;
• Chelyabinsk;
• Magnitogorsk

In most of the listed points, many industrial enterprises have been built and operate.

Medicine

In order for a person to live a full life, he must be provided with competent and timely medical care. Not only the quality, but also the duration of its life depends on this. Therefore, cities where medicine is accessible and services are provided professionally can be considered favorable for living. One must also look at the mortality rate and the average life expectancy of those who are residents of the city.

In our country, medicine is the most modern and accessible to residents:

• Moscow and the northern capital;
• Naberezhnye Chelny;
• Tyumen region.

But many other large cities also have modern centers for diagnosing and treating diseases. In addition, you need to remember about the cities of southern Russia, where many sanatoriums are concentrated and where the climate itself is therapeutic.

Standard of living

Those regions that are rich in natural resources, hydrocarbons, gas and oil, as well as those where there are many jobs with decent wages, are among the best according to the specified sampling criterion. Statistics over many years show that the highest wages are for those who live in:

• Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous Okrug;
• Moscow region;

Residents of the Ural and Central Federal Districts also receive decent wages for their work. The Republic of Tatarstan is developing rapidly.

The quality of living in the city is also indicated by cost of housing stock in him. The highest indicators on this point in Russia are in:

• Moscow;
• Northern cities;
• Krasnodar region.

At the same time, you can purchase relatively inexpensive real estate in the Southern Urals, in Siberian cities and in the Volga region.

Climatic conditions

Not only the ecology, but also the climate can be unfavorable for living in it. Cities with small day-to-day temperature fluctuations, as well as without pressure drops, can be considered the most suitable for living. In addition, the more sunny days there are per year, the better the health of people - especially the younger generation - due to the emitted ultraviolet radiation.

Taking these factors into account, the best cities according to climate criteria include:

• cities of the Krasnodar region, especially Sochi and Krasnodar;
• Sevastopol;
• Astrakhan.

There are no sudden changes in weather or frequent magnetic storms.

Workplaces

People of working age definitely need a sufficient number of jobs in the city. It is also important for ambitious young professionals to have opportunities and prospects for career growth. To assess this potential of a city, one must take into account competition for jobs, the unemployment rate and the number of people willing to move to another city in search of work.

Best employment rates in:

• Ryazan;
• Vologda;
• Yuzhno-Sakhalinsk;
• Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky;
• Vladivostok.

But if we talk about development prospects, the rating will look somewhat different. There are many cities that have not achieved such indicators as those listed, but have great potential and are developing at a rapid pace. These include:

• Kazan;
• Krasnoyarsk;
• Krasnodar.

Tourism is developing in Kazan, as well as industrial sectors, and a housing stock is being built. Krasnoyarsk is one of the largest sports, educational and economic centers in Siberia, in addition, it has received the title of the most well-maintained city in our country many times. Krasnodar is one of the most attractive cities for business development and investment.

Safety

The low level of security also makes the city unattractive for living. Only those people who feel protected and are not afraid for their loved ones can say that they live in a good place. According to crime statistics, the safest settlements are:

• Ryazan;
• Voronezh;
• Saint Petersburg.

At the same time, cities such as Kemerovo, Nizhny Novgorod, Tyumen, Samara and Kurgan are known for their sad statistics on this criterion. Therefore, it is difficult to call them the most suitable for life.

Educational institutions

Young people and families with children, assessing a city by the degree of its attractiveness for living, always look at the level of its educational institutions. Sports and entertainment facilities are also important for the proper development of the younger generation.

The following cities have the highest material equipment:

• Kazan;
• Rostov-on-Don;
• Voronezh.

Here, novice specialists will be able to prove themselves and begin to apply their knowledge in practice.

Prestige indicators

Moscow is, of course, one of the most prestigious cities in Russia. The capital is an ideal place for everyone who dreams of fully realizing their professional and creative potential. But this can also be done in other cities - primarily in the northern capital of Russia, St. Petersburg.

But it would be fair to say that the largest cities of all subjects of the state attract the best specialists, ambitious university graduates and people simply striving for a better lifestyle. This especially applies to Omsk and Surgut, where wages are very high and there are many jobs.

Planning a move

Having assessed the opportunities for life and career growth offered in certain cities, Russians often think about moving or migrating within the country. Those who are ready to spend physical and material resources for a better life, and are also not afraid of an emotional shake-up, can try their hand at a new place.

In order to minimize the stress of changing cities, you need to follow the following recommendations.

1. Prepare emotionally. First of all, you need to accept the fact that the changes will be enormous. You will have to say goodbye not only to your favorite sofa, but also to friends and relatives who remain in the same city. Having moved, you should take your time looking for work, hobbies, meeting new people - so that there is no room for melancholy. When moving with children, you need to take care of their emotional comfort.
2. Collect documents. In a new city, especially when trying to get a job, you may need a work record book, letters of recommendation from your previous place of work, a medical record, a certificate of income and other documents. It is worth collecting them in advance, even before leaving your hometown.
3. Start your job search. This can be done even before a person finds himself in a new place. The Internet allows you to send your resume to organizations anywhere in the world, and you should take advantage of this opportunity.
4. Start searching for housing. However, it is better to purchase real estate after having already lived in a new city for some time. First of all, there is a possibility that you will not like the new rhythm of life and will want to go back. In addition, only after getting to know the city better can you understand which area is most suitable.

If you think about the move in advance, it won't be so difficult.

Where is it better to live in Russia: rating of cities from the category “who can live well in Rus'”

Every year, ratings of the most comfortable cities for living are compiled. Many factors are taken into account when compiling ratings. These include: climatic conditions, infrastructure development, the presence of educational and medical institutions, wage levels and much more.

If we consider the question of where it is better to live in Russia in terms of wages, unemployment, and in general the opportunity to earn good money, we can highlight the following cities:

Moscow - the bells are ringing

No other city can compete with Moscow in terms of the number of jobs. In the capital of Russia both wages and living standards are attractive. Here you can find work for everyone: from generalists to highly specialized specialists.

Moscow has created favorable conditions for creating your own business. Even with great competition, you can always find your niche in this huge metropolis.

It’s not for nothing that people hear such concepts as “Moscow is not rubber”, “they’ve come in large numbers here” - this suggests that many people continue to move to Moscow. Some come here for higher education, and then remain for permanent residence.

In addition to Moscow itself, you can also get a good job in the Moscow region. There is also enough work here with a good salary for everyone.

The main areas of activity that allow achieving high financial results in Moscow and the Moscow region include: marketing, trade, and the latest technologies. Work in these areas is fairly well valued in monetary terms.

If you are not afraid of excessive fuss, the eternal lack of time for anything else except work and the road to it, then forward, as they say, “towards happiness”! And for help, check out the article “How to open your own business in Moscow from scratch.”

City on the Neva – St. Petersburg

Moscow’s worthy competition in terms of the number of jobs is the country’s second multimillion-dollar city, St. Petersburg. This is one of the most beautiful cities in Russia, its cultural center. The very concept of “cultural center” should already make people think about actually getting work for representatives of cultural professions.

A huge number of tourists from all countries flock to St. Petersburg - again, not free, of course, but a niche for the excursion and hotel business.

If you are tormented by the question of where is the best place to live in Russia, then, of course, St. Petersburg is perfect for work, study, and recreation. But do not forget about the rainy and gloomy climate of this city.

It is worth noting that Moscow and St. Petersburg love ambitious and purposeful people, because... Despite the enormous prospects, it is quite difficult to break into these megacities.

A storehouse of oil and gas – Tyumen

In terms of living standards, Tyumen always ranks first in the ranking. This is also evidenced by statistical data from a survey of people living there. People note the quality of education, the climate, and the work of public utilities.

Tyumen has a high percentage of vacancies with salaries over one hundred thousand rubles. The high northern coefficient also contributes.

The main activities in Tyumen are oil and gas production, woodworking industry, and battery production. That is, these are quite “expensive” areas of employment.

Oh, Kamchatka - the cities of the Kamchatka Territory

Despite the high wages, Kamchatka is not suitable for everyone. This place is suitable for those looking for privacy. The main activity in Kamchatka is the extraction of fuel and energy minerals.

For those who are considering Kamchatka as their permanent place of residence, information about business opportunities will be useful. Firstly, these are projects to introduce the latest technologies for processing fish and seafood. Secondly, this is the tourism sector.

Yekaterinburg - are you from the Urals?

Yekaterinburg is one of the important scientific and industrial centers of Russia. A variety of industries from engineering to light industry are concentrated here. The trade sector is also well developed. So jobs are provided to everyone.

The service market is also widely developed in the metropolis, which in turn provides employment opportunities for people of completely different professions. Yekaterinburg is also a major transport hub, connecting seven railway lines.

A large number of educational institutions are concentrated in Yekaterinburg, and these are prospects for young people, who are undoubtedly wondering where it is better to live in Russia. It should also be noted that Yekaterinburg has quite attractive housing prices compared to other megacities.

Of course, these are not all cities that offer us a real opportunity to earn extra money. Statistics are an unpredictable thing, bringing first one city or another in the ranking. In terms of favorable conditions for doing business, cities such as Ufa, Belgorod, Irkutsk, Krasnodar, Kaliningrad, Voronezh, Nizhny Novgorod, Novosibirsk, Sochi also occupied and still occupy high positions.

It should be noted that when researching where it is better to live in Russia, it is also necessary to take into account the ranking by region. For example, in terms of average wages, the top five regions include:

• Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous Okrug, where most of the oil and gas production throughout the country is concentrated;
• Chukotka Autonomous Okrug, famous for its mining industry;
• Khanty - Mansi Autonomous Okrug, which is not inferior in gas reserves to the Yamalo-Nenets;
• Nenets Autonomous Okrug, famous for its fishing and forestry industries, as well as the Vasilkovo-Naryan-Mar Gas Pipeline;
• Magadan region, whose main activity is the fishing industry and gold mining.

Of course, when deciding to move to these regions for high salaries, do not forget about other equally important factors, such as climatic conditions and assessments of the level of quality of life in general.

Once you have decided where it is better to live in Russia, the question of making money will undoubtedly arise. We recommend reading the following articles: “5 ways to become a millionaire in a big city” and also “Live in a small town? A selection of ideas for you."

So, you have found out where you can earn extra money. But work is not the most important thing in life. There is also a family, children. You also need to think about old age. Let's travel around Russia in search of a better life through the prism of family values ​​and the environmental situation. We will look for where it is better to live for retirees in Russia, and also where to move with children.

Where is the best place for retirees to live in Russia?

When choosing a place of residence for retirees, factors such as the ability to earn money in retirement should be taken into account, of course, if desired. Also, no less important is the health factor. It is no secret that older people suffer from various types of diseases. Therefore, when searching for the best place to live for retirees in Russia, it is necessary to take into account the climate and environmental situation.

Don’t forget about the size of the pension in a particular region, because the majority of pensioners live only on pensions. You should also take into account the communal infrastructure, the size of the food basket, i.e. all those factors that make up the expenditure part of a pensioner’s budget.

Having studied all this, one can come to the sad conclusion that it is better for a pensioner to live abroad, where the size of the pension allows not to survive, but to actually live!

But what about Russia? Where is the best place to live in Russia: rating of Russian cities comfortable for retirement.

• Irkutsk

Features: increased pension due to subsidies for pensioners living in the Far North, affordable costs of housing and communal services and a food basket.

• Tula and Bryansk regions

Features: a fairly high well-being index, which shows the amount of free cash remaining with pensioners after basic expenses (housing and communal services, food basket and medicines).

• Sarapul, Mineralnye Vody, Taganrog Sochi, Kostroma, Pskov

Feature: environmentally friendly environment

• Yaroslavl

Feature: one of the lowest utility fees in Russia

• Krasnodar region

Of course, everyone decides for themselves where it is better to live in Russia, based on their own criteria. For some, the main thing is material well-being, for others it is the development of agriculture, and for others a favorable climate is important.

It is worth paying special attention once again to the fact that pensioners are a category of people who suffer from various diseases. And not only pensioners, to say the least. Therefore, when choosing a place of residence, do not neglect the fact that it is not always good for a hypertensive patient where it is good for an allergic or asthmatic person. Climate is of great importance here.

Features: favorable climate, well-developed healthcare system.

Where is the best place to live in Russia with children?

When answering the question “Where is the best place to live with children in Russia,” you need to take into account factors such as the availability of educational institutions and medical care. Pay attention to the crime rate.

Also, when moving, you need to take into account climatic conditions. It is advisable, if the child is small, that the climate of the two cities - the one you live in and the one you plan to move to - is not very different. And if children have weak immunity, then give preference to coastal regions.

• Kazan
• Belgorod, Voronezh

  Also one of the largest scientific and educational centers, occupying top positions in the ranking.

• Rostov-on-Don

  A cultural and educational center with a huge number of entertainment facilities for children and youth.

• Kaliningrad

Of course, it would take a very long time to list the best places to live in Russia. To identify the best place, ratings and surveys are conducted annually. Moreover, both large million-plus cities and small ones are compared with each other. If a city is among the top five this year, it does not mean that it will retain this position next year. It is quite difficult to find a place that would suit you in all respects: both in terms of doing business and in terms of favorable conditions for children and elderly parents. Even such a question as “where is it better to live by the sea in Russia” is worth thinking about. Of course, no one argues about a favorable climate, but is it possible to find a good job everywhere?

How many people, so many opinions. And when making such an important decision as moving to another city, you need to take into account both your goals and expectations from the move, and the composition of your family. It is always easier for one person to take off, it is easier to endure, for example, an unfavorable climate in the name of receiving a high salary.

Many consider Kaliningrad the best both in terms of quality of life and, attention, for doing business. Moreover, it is the most European city. Therefore, when considering the best options to live with children in Russia, do not ignore this city.

Where is it better to live by the sea in Russia?

Many Russian residents who want to change their place of residence opt for cities in central or southern Russia. This is especially true for residents of northern cities who lack the sea and sun. And experts recommend moving to the sea for children who constantly suffer from colds. For retirees, again, the southern climate is most favorable.

So, where is it better to live by the sea in Russia, so that, as they say, “the wolves are fed and the sheep are safe”? Let's stop at a couple of towns.

To conclude our search for a better life in Russia, we should mention the four cities where the happiest people live. Maybe this criterion will be decisive in your choice. So, the four included Grozny, Tyumen, Kazan, Surgut. And in general, if you analyze the entire article, you can find the intersection of many cities in lists of different importance. The same Krasnodar or Sochi have appeared almost everywhere: they are favorable both for doing business and for living in retirement. Everything has already been said about moving with children to these southern seaside towns.

Let us note that there is no smell of Moscow and St. Petersburg here. But you can pay closer attention to Tyumen and Kazan. Tyumen is listed in the TOP of the “richest” cities in Russia, where there is a real opportunity to earn money. And we saw Kazan on the list of favorable places to move with children.

Where to move to live: what criteria are taken into account when moving

There are more than 1000 large, medium and small settlements in Russia, and each of them is individual. However, when planning a move, the first thing you need to decide is the city where to move for permanent residence. It is worth choosing, taking into account some criteria.

• Salary level;
• availability of a good school/kindergarten;
• infrastructure development;
• quantity and level of entertainment;
• climatic conditions;
• cleanliness of the environment.

The priority criterion is determined by the reason for the move: someone feels cramped in a provincial town and wants to conquer the capital or another city with a million people, while someone, on the contrary, is suffocating in the concrete jungle and wants to feel close to nature, then work with moving to another city is a completely justified decision.
