      The zoning in Russia is pretty cool. You can live in an apartment building and in your direct neighborhood (radius of 200m) you will probably have a pharmacy, a bank, a small shop and a café. Which is really convenient. Also most shops operate 7 days a week. Where I live in Germany I have to go by foot 20min to the nearest pharmacy, its closing every day at 6:30pm and is not open on Sundays :-( really inconvenient!

    Many comments from Russians who now live abroad in the “west” are all saying “wow can’t believe this is Russia, it doesn’t look like the Russia of the 1990s”
    This is the thing: people do not understand how much Putin’s legacy has changed Russia 🇷🇺… Russia against all odds, and against all sanctions and pressures has modernised!
    If you look at other sanctioned countries, you wouldn’t see this degree of development.
    Now imagine if all those “oligarchs” in the west invested their billions in Russia, and they paid taxes in Russia… and they used their billions to create similar infrastructures and development?
    In reality the slow progress is directly correlated to the “west” stealing. Oligarchs from Russia 🇷🇺, many parts of London, Paris, Geneva, New York etc are super expensive because billionaire Russians and chinese are investing their money 💰 in the west, instead of Russia /China etc

      We'll see when the first rain falls lol. But no, I have to agree. This is really a big step-up from the "German Village" which was built around Krasnodar a decade ago. There were questions regarding the quality of some of the houses back then while the infrastructure looks quite dated already. These buildings on the other hand look sturdy and expensive while the infrastructure looks to be well though out. Though I wish they would have used bricks instead of aerated concrete as we can see, but guess it's all about how much you are willing to pay.

    Privyet, Sam. These mixed-use developments are becoming popular here where I live. The umbrella term is "new urbanism" and the idea is to live, work, shop, and play during your free time in one central location. It's promoted as safer, more climate friendly, etc. That said, the one you are featuring in this video seems to have many more trees and the ones in or near the city where I live are urban. In theory, these neighborhoods are very attractive. In practicality, there are many life nuances. If there is good mass transit and/or you have a nice automobile, then it is ethereal. If not, it could be a tough life. You would be better living in a city or in a rural area, depending on your needs and tastes. I must say, the trees in your region are beautiful. Blagosloveniya, Sam. Great job.

    • @creole-qy2om
      @creole-qy2om 4 месяца назад +2

      @@SamsRussianAdventures This is a very smart development if the high-speed rail/mass transit connection happens. A lot of people don't realize, outside of Russia, at least, that Moscow is the largest city in Europe and the bulk of the Russian population -- roughly 80 percent or so -- lives West of the Ural Mountains. So, the Russian Federation also has larger cities in European Russia like St. Petersburg, Yekaterinburg, Kazan, Perm, Nizhny Novgorod, Yaroslavl, Voronezh, etc. If a development like Dobrograd is successful, then more can be planned, and with proper connectivity and accessibility, this can relieve city centers of overpopulation, at least in theory, and spread the population and wealth out a bit more evenly. Moscow is not only Europe's largest city, but it is a primate city, and if you take in the greater Moscow metropolitan statistical area, it is also a metacity (more than 20 million). Any development that could give you quick access to a city of this size, yet still give you safe and clean living, and potentially take a bit of pressure off a city of such size, should become successful. The advantage the Russian Federation has here is plenty of available land in which to develop and grow. Good arable land with lots of trees and water access, as well. That mass transit connection is key. This is the case with any country in the developing and developed world. Sitting in traffic for hours upon hours is counterproductive no matter where you live. Specibo, Sam.

    Dobrograd is a whole new city, as I understand, closed, where only new buildings and comfortable environment for recreation, but something like this is almost everywhere in Russia, only these are not cities, but new neighborhoods on the outskirts of old cities that look similar. Or there are new gated cottage communities consisting of modern townhouses and cottages, with landscaped grounds. Only in the Moscow region and neighboring regions there are hundreds of such settlements, probably. For example, on the outskirts of Krasnodar there is a residential area called “Europeya”, which includes housing complexes (apartment buildings, townhouses, cottages) with names such as “Germany”, “New Portugal” and so on. But this is expensive housing, not for everyone💰

    Superb development and on a grand scale. Many a European or American would feel right at home. When that transport link to Moscow and beyond is built this development will fly - looks like a good investment once a clear idea of when the link is to be completed. Gated communities make a lot of sense.

    At around 10:35 in your video kind of made it. I'm beginning to think that one of the most, if not the most, important factors is the people (friendly, conservative lifestyle yet outgoing with like-minded people, etc.). It's almost impossible to make friends where I currently live. It's almost as if "they" try to close down the places where maybe friends can be made. It gets me thinking that it's essential to visit the places first before actually planning to move somewhere specific. It'd be nice to drink a few beers and struggle with the language "barrier" with some of the folks that have moved into the new town you present here. And golf 😄 Thanks again for your awesome video!

    Ill bet there are some kind of factories or plants are being built somewhere close or maybe military bases. Otherwise it makes no sense to build an empty town like that in the middle of nowhere. Very interesting. ( Yep I just googled it, they are building production factories all around and called it a Special Economic Zone)

My friend is a welder that fixes all kind of factory equipment based out of St Petersburg but he travels allover and makes $2.5k/m.. he told me a lot of stories of how to make money in Russia nowadays :) Another guy i know works on an oil rig and makes $3k/m... You can basically multiply those numbers by 4 to compare it to US salaries. I would imagine people working in brand new weapon manufacturing factories are getting fairly paid too.

    I looked at how much those townhouses were. Very reasonable. Around $125,000 USD and around $200,000 USD for the biggest one with a large backyard. It's the new American Dream. Imagine if they started a community like this that was for English speaking western migrants at these prices. I think it would be very successful.
