What is a typical expat home or apartment like in Russia?
We asked expats what a typical home or apartment in Russia is like. They answered...
"2 room furnished appartment outside the city center, but inside the city. I pay for my own housing. Most expats get a (large) budget from their company and thus rent an appartment in the citycenter or a house outside the city," remarked another expat who made the move to Moscow, Russia.
"Expat homes and apartments in Russia tend to be modern and comfortable, with amenities such as air conditioning, high-speed internet, and modern appliances. Many expats choose to live in larger cities such as Moscow and St. Petersburg, where they can find a wide range of housing options, from luxury apartments to more affordable options. Expats may also choose to live in smaller cities, where they can find more affordable housing and a slower pace of life. In general, expat homes and apartments in Russia are well-equipped and comfortable, providing a great place to live and work," explained one expat living in Russia.
