  1. And then you get Russian salary of 300$ a month...

  2. Those dachas are far from cities and jobs, many have very old houses, and located in settlements, which don't have permanent water supply and central heating cause those dacha settlements were made specifically for summer habitation and gardening not for permanent living. In our dacha, for example, the house is heated with small incredibly old fireplace, like ones which existed in old old trains (my grandpa worked on railway and brought one when it stopped being used there), so we need wood for heating, and the house is old and badly constructed, so it is warm enough to live only in the summer, and sometimes not even the whole summer, plus in the winter the only water supply is the well, and the year-round store is far away, and the railway station is far away and the city is even further away... Well, you get the point

  3. Some university dorms of SPbU are old and terrible too. I lived in many different dorms throughout my 10 years at uni, and some had permanent cockroach infestation, which was impossible to get rid of, even though the rooms were regularly sprayed by professionals

  4. Yeah, with his uncleaned (!) room

  5.  @f67739  they are in ownership, so you can use it year round, of course, but many places don't have central heating and year-round water supply in dacha settlements

  6. Dude, your city doesn't even have subway, right? With its size? Move the hell away, there are better places in the USA

  7.  @themichaelvonavicanale7515  yeah, if you have money, and the settlement is alright, and not that far from the city

  8.  @garykaplan7728  yeah, and then have all that pollution from all those cars? I think that is not a good thing. Cities should be compact in size and have public transport, that is optimal

  9. Well, it is the largest city in the country, after all. Apartments in Moscow cost insane amount of money too

  10.  @soulassassin0g  well, in Russia big cities have both tram and subway. Plus bus and electric bus (trolley bus). Moscow also has internal railway system. So....

  11. Depends on comparison average salaries/average rental prices wherever you live

  12. California has better opportunities than Chelyabinsk, I am sure. So at least you can earn more there too.
