Coming back and need an advice

Being outside of country for three years (currently living in China), I'm kind of scared of coming back to KZ. I don't know much how is it there now, the time i left it wasn't so great(. Would be really great to get a good advice.
My questions:
1. How are the prices in Astana and Almaty, for accommodation in particular.
2. Is it difficult for locals to find a well-paid job? I'm Russian, don't speak Kazakh, but fluent English and Chinese. Not much working experience, only internships and master degree in international trade.
3. I got used to an expat environment and I'm afraid to get bored there. Are there some expats under 30?

Desperate to get your replies!
Thnx

1.)A small but good apartmant in the centre of Almaty is around usd 800-1000.
2.) well paid job without working experinece is impossible. If you speak chinese and interested in logistics, we might be interested on hiring you but not before Sept 2010.
3.) there is an active expat life here but mainly above 30.....
