Odessa is what you want it to be. It is a city of more than a million so yes it has everything.
American Visa at first then a residency permit for permanency. I obtained my residency permit via marriage.
All of the above, plus a built the home of my desires.
Far exceeded. I found that I have more than enough for life.
Remember that if you decide to go back to your native country it will be a challenge to bring large sums of money with you. Meaning like more than 10k.
Very broad question a lot of people call "comfortable" a lot of different things. Comfortable for me is doing what I want when I want and so that translates to about 10k per month
Yes, here in Odessa we have very good quality healthcare and much better than my native USA by far and at 1/10th the cost.

I have answered so many questions im tired of telling people, if you don't like it you can go back !!

Many expats move to Ukraine for its low cost of living. Expats living in Ukraine appreciate that most Ukrainians are salt-of-the-earth, hardworking people. Corruption and bribery are a way of life and expats share their experiences paying bribes.
What would you say is the least monthly dollar amount from a 401K an American would need to retire on in Odessa. Considering Rent, Gas, Electric, Food, transportation, Cloths, Travel's, and Medical. Thanks
