The most favorable climate in Russia for living

Human health and general well-being largely depend on climatic conditions. However, it is not only air temperature that has an effect. This also includes the following climatic factors:

• number of windy days and wind speed;
• air humidity;
• solar radiation;
• atmospheric pressure.

Based on the above criteria, scientists have established the most favorable, one might say the best, place in Russia for human life. Having stable weather conditions, low day-to-day variability or, in other words, a sharp jump in temperature and atmospheric pressure.

This place is the foothills of the North Caucasus.

The Black Sea coast has the highest average annual temperature of plus 14 degrees Celsius, and the warmest winter season with temperature parameters in January of plus 4.7 degrees Celsius. The Caucasus Mountains and sea breeze also provide the most comfortable summer.

Based on this, it should be concluded that, according to climatic conditions, the most prosperous cities for living in Russia are: Sochi, Anapa.

Kaliningrad

The most prosperous cities in Russia

The most prosperous places in Russia for people are:

• Kazan;
• Moscow;
• Saint Petersburg.

• average salary;
• environmental situation;
• medical care;
• level of education;
• infrastructure and much more.

The described moments are in most cases concentrated in cities with a population of over a million, since material support in them is much higher than in other regions of the country.

Saint Petersburg

In order to better study the benefits of prosperous places for a person to live, you should study each of them in more detail:

• The capital of Tatarstan has become a home for more than one million three hundred people. Kazan is gaining momentum year after year in infrastructure and private entrepreneurship. The city is famous for its good roads, beautiful architectural projects, and a large number of educational institutions. The city is also very well maintained, there are picturesque parks and squares;
• Moscow is the largest and most populous city in the Russian Federation. The total population exceeded twelve million people. The center is famous for its high salaries, good roads, well-established housing and communal services, higher educational institutions, research centers, cultural and entertainment places;
• Krasnodar attracts with its warm climate, high-quality medical services, and new housing buildings. The population today is more than 850 thousand people;
• Tyumen is also recognized as one of the safest places in Russia. The number of residents is more than 700 thousand people. The rapid pace of development is due to the oil and gas industry involved;
• The second capital of the Russian Federation is the city of St. Petersburg with a population of over five million people. St. Petersburg can also be called the most beautiful place in Russia. Just look at its palaces, squares, canals, and parks. The city has a high level of healthcare, higher education, and an established housing and communal structure. Many students choose universities in the Northern capital for admission.

The worst cities in Russia to live in

The list of the most unfavorable cities for living in the Russian Federation is compiled taking into account the environmental situation, the quality of medicine, the pace of construction, the criminal situation and other factors.

• First on the list is the industrial city of Magnitogorsk. It has a very poor environmental situation, poor quality education, uninteresting and dilapidated architecture. Industrial smoke released into the atmosphere every minute affects the health and overall life expectancy of local residents;
• Second on the list is Artem. Devastation, crime, alcohol and drug addiction have eaten away the once prosperous city. The poor environmental situation and lack of jobs force city residents to move to other more prosperous cities. According to reviews from local residents who have decided to move, it is impossible to live and raise children in peace in such a city;
• - although it is not considered a city with a poor environment and developed crime, it repels migrants due to its harsh climate, poor transport infrastructure, and lack of housing;
• - characterized by poor environmental conditions, lack of good medical care and education. All this forces young people to move to other places in search of good living conditions;
• Arkhangelsk is also included in the rating of unfavorable places in Russia. Arkhangelsk has a very large number of visitors from Central Asian countries. This is due to the fact that local residents leave their jobs and move closer to the capital. Qualified personnel are forced to leave by poor environmental conditions, low wages, lack of good infrastructure and career growth.

Which city in Russia has the highest salaries?

Salary is an integral criterion when choosing a permanent place of residence.

The best places with high salaries include the following:

• The first city on the list is the capital of Russia - Moscow. In the capital, there is a vacancy for any person, qualified or lacking experience and education. The average salary is almost twice the national average salary and is about 56,000 rubles. By the way, it is in the capital that you can find food at very low, cheap prices, even in St. Petersburg you cannot find this;
• The average salary in Tyumen is about 45,000 rubles. As already mentioned, not only good salaries attract a flow of immigrants to this city, but also developed infrastructure and high-quality medicine;
• The average salary in St. Petersburg is about 40,000 rubles. It is worth noting that there are as many vacancies there as in the capital;
• The Kamchatka Territory is also on the list of places in Russia with the highest average salary, amounting to about 52,000 rubles;

Please note: The Kamchatka region is gaining momentum year after year - the infrastructure is improving, the level of education is growing and great contributions are being made to the development of medicine.

• And last on the list is , whose average salary is about 30,000 rubles. A well-established industrial sector and an established services market have a positive effect on the employment of those coming to Yekaterinburg.

Did you know that: In a city with a population of over a million people, housing is relatively inexpensive. Therefore, it will not be difficult for a working family to acquire their own house or apartment.

Where is it better to live in the south of Russia

The question of where it is better to live in the south of Russia was answered above - in the Krasnodar Territory. This choice is explained by moderate climatic conditions without sudden temperature changes. More than one million people live in the city of Krasnodar, but there is absolutely no fuss there; on the contrary, life is measured and leisurely.

The city also has a good environmental situation, there are absolutely no large industrial facilities, and there are no problems with jobs. Individual entrepreneurship is developing at a very good pace in Krasnodar. The average salary is about 35,000 rubles. This is a comfortable, promising city where many decide to go for permanent residence.

Conclusion

From all of the above, we can conclude that there are good cities in Russia, you just need to be able to get a hold of them. It is recommended to make the final choice on which city in Russia is better to move to live after a preliminary search for housing and a current workplace.

The main thing is the desire to work, invest, develop and raise your children in the conditions that you have chosen.

We bring to your attention a video with an overview of the best cities in Russia to live in:

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

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.

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 Russian cities 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.

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.

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 has settled 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 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 happy 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.

Are you satisfied with the city in which you live? Have you ever thought about moving to another place? If you have thought about it, why? What do you not like: the climate, the environmental situation, or maybe the economic situation? Where is the best place to live in Russia? Let's figure it out.

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.

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 Ekaterinburg 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 activities are 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.

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?

Where can I get money to start my own business? This is exactly the problem that 95% of new entrepreneurs face! In the article, we revealed the most relevant ways to obtain start-up capital for an entrepreneur. We also recommend that you carefully study the results of our experiment in exchange earnings:

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.

We should not 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 prices for 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 too.

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, most importantly, 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.

Conclusion

So, we have found out where it is better to live in Russia from the point of view of experts and sociological surveys - now the choice is yours. Research and compare which criteria are paramount for you and which are not so important. Don't forget to take into account who you are going to live with in your new place, so that their interests are taken into account as well.

And no matter what city you choose to live in: your hometown or one of the top five in terms of quality of life, be sure to take into account your preferences. Some people like large cities, with many “factories and ships,” while others prefer a quieter life in the outback. Good luck with your choice!

The Economist Intelligence Unit has published its annual Global Liveability Report 2017, which ranks the world's cities by quality of life. Here you need to understand that many parameters were taken into account: the level of crime, the threat of terrorism and military conflicts, accessibility to healthcare, education, infrastructure, the existing cultural environment, ecology, etc.

I hasten to disappoint you, Moscow was only in 80th place. Our Ukrainian neighbors are also in for an unpleasant surprise.

It also turned out that I was in more places from the last ten ratings than from the first. So enjoy photos and posts from cities you probably never want to visit! ;)

A wonderful city, I celebrated New Year here! Melbourne has a cool tram, great wine, delicious steaks and koalas. What else is needed for happiness?

3. Vancouver (Canada) But I never made it to Vancouver (I only saw it from the airplane window.

I’ve been, seen, walked, and I can confirm: everything is great here!

5. Calgary (Canada) I didn’t make it, I need to fix it!

6. Adelaide (Australia). I haven’t been either (Shame! I’ll definitely visit in December!

7. Perth (Australia) It’s in the plans for December! By the way, Perth is a city of miners with all the ensuing consequences: miners love to have fun;) And a city of ordinary Australian men, bogans! We’ll sit on the courts, beat someone and drink beer.

Many people like Auckland, but I find it a bit boring. Yes, safe, clean, but BORING!

Oh, I wrote a lot about this recently;) Did you like it?))))

Hamburg is not only the protests I recently covered, but also a livable city!

Oh) We are in the middle.

Oh, and Kyiv is in trouble. Literally, in the top ten worst cities. It's all because of the Maidan and its consequences. Or maybe the environment has worsened due to tires?

I don't particularly remember the city...

133. Harare I haven’t been here, but I’ve been to Zimbabwe and I can say that it’s an ASS!

134-135. But they shouldn’t have included Karachi. Cool city! I liked it. Islamabad and Lahore are a much bigger dump.

This is where I don’t understand at all: a cool, safe and green city! I enjoyed spending 3 days there at the time.

136. Port Moresby (Papua New Guinea) Plans for next year.
