Typical Russian Apartment Tour and Price 2024

Would you live here? How does the value/standard compare to the capital city of your country?

Well, it certainly beats a whole lot of apartments in NYC!

I love the dog sitting in the hallway! 😊

While many Canadians are homeless and living in tents, these apartments are a dream for many Canadians. They are clean and safe and no graffiti.

I live in the Panhandle of Florida. Rent starts at 2,000.00 and up. This does not include Electric or Cable. A lot of people are working 2 to 3 jobs just to handle living near a beach. You guys are a lot less stress. Thanks for the video. VERY INFORMATIVE!

As a Russian-German who lives in Germany and has been to Russia (Moscow and Chelyabinsk) multiple times I can confirm everything this man says. And I can tell any foreigner who doesn’t know anything about Russia: this is exactly the most average apartment you can get. Russians don’t live poorly at all, even though many of the commentators say „bro, the average salary in Russia is only 800$ hurr-durr!!“ it does not matter. This country has infinite land, food, wood, gas, oil, water etc., which means everything is sooo cheap. They dont rely on anyone, they are doing just fine!

I live in the United States in the state of Arkansas and I find your flat in Moscow reasonably priced especially with utilities included. Thanks for this video as I had no idea about the prices in Russia 😊

I like the safety ,no homeless or beggars, neighbours caring about each other. Sounds nice and the flat and value is affordable.

Extremely interesting & informative video. Thank you.

I would be interested to see a tour of some more high-end options in Moscow. Thank you for the video.

Very interesting. This is a great channel to share with people who know nothing about Russia.

I lived in Minsk for 4 years and this is comparable. I rented a nice house just outside the city for $1,000 with a similar renovation to this apartment. But it was a large house with a pond and 20 fruit trees with a detached large garage. I also rented a couple apartments in the city. One similar to this but in a brand new building with fancy renovation for $1,100, and one that was 2 room with fancy renovation for $700.

American here and thank you for the tour. It makes one feel very thankful for the way I live here!

I taught English in Moscow in 2010. I shared a flat with a girl from Dublin in the Moscow suburb Prolotarskaya. It was quite a nice area. The flat we lived in was old fashioned but it had gushing hot water that filled a big bath, very warm in the flat and the block generally and I always thought the the gas on the gas cooker was a lot more powerful than here in UK. I have fond memories. Oh yes the utilities were very cheap. My salary was about $500 as rent was removed before we received the salary. I carried around a card that said ya ne poniyamoo po ruski- I don’t speak Russian, but I did pick up some phrases and learnt the alphabet.

Nothing is free. You either pay taxes or pay the doctor. You cannot compare the apartment to where you live until you know the average salary, and know the percentage of a person's salary is used for housing.

Nice size apartment, and the windows provide great airy feeling. Here in the Las Vegas Valley that square footage would be a minimum of $1800 per month or more - especially for a nice building & neighborhood- and I like the concept of all classes of people living in the same building. That goes against the class division here in the U.S. It’s so interesting and informative to learn about how people around the world live from someone who is actually there rather than the bias of the media. We’re really all one people doing our best to live on this planet, and it’s tragic we allow ourselves to be separated rather than just enjoying our time here. To answer your question of whether I could live there - yes, I could make that a very comfortable home.

wow, really enjoyed your video, super educational. I had no Idea. Thanks Man!

I used to live in Athens Greece, living in a block similar to this but old, in a very dangerous neighborhood, and the apartments were 1/4 the size of this one. Old, dusty, tattered small places, housing families of 3-6 people. Try living like that with an €850 salary, where 70% of it goes to rent and bills. That is how 85% of Athens is. This apartment looks like a dream to me.

I found this very interesting and as I live in the UK I was surprised when you said about the lack of crime and the way the neighbours foster a community spirit. In London at present, you couldn't leave your bike unattended in a hallway it'd be stolen in a few days.

Accidentally came across this channel & so happy I did 👍
