@@juzzoo I think we’re taking about the same thing. In the US *_the rent_* would be approximately $3,480, or three times the min monthly wage, which is $1160 (assuming full time, 4 weeks of 40 hours, $7.25/hour). Why should we consider rent three times higher than the min wage? Because in Russia the minimum wage was about 15,ooo roubles, and the monthly rent was 45,ooo, so three times higher.

In San Francisco one will pay almost 2500 for a studio or more. Same in NYC. Other places in the country are cheaper. Cities are more expensive to live where the jobs are.

Yes, I expected something a lot more basic. The kitchen was nice and we have a Samsung FF very similar to that model, but I'd miss a tumble dryer. The bathroom would have made a great second bedroom and a bath- or shower-room could have been slotted in somewhere else (bedroom balcony?). The layout, the lack of a proper shower and no tumble dryer would probably put me off, as well as it being a high-rise. The bathroom acoustics might be great for a singer ... not so much for their neighbours :). I just find it astonishing that, given the amount of land in Russia, they feel the need to build high-rise blocks at all - seems like a throw-back to Communist times.

Well it’s not gonna be too old of a house there is a federal program in Russia where government either renovates older apartment blocks or relocated people to newly built apartment blocks of equal size if the building is too old to renovate.. So every month there are less and less of those “old apartment blocks” you are talking about 🤷‍♂️

The bay window is beautiful and the view...amazing !

Yeah, I enjoyed seeing the apt. and how much they rent for. I liked that you walked and showed us all the little shops within the one building! Thanks!😊

The apartment is nicer than almost every apartment I’ve ever lived in.

Thank you for the video, Russell! We have pretty similar apartment buildings in Bulgaria, 50% of the population lives in building like the one you showed us, me included. Interesting to see the common areas so well maintained which I know is rather hard when you have lots of people living together. The tour was interesting, all is so similar to my country and the capital area. Thank you! Vasko

Nice apartment! Thanks for sharing. Apartments in the US tend to be smaller, but they have more bedrooms. Building in our cities, like New York, are usually built of concrete. Housing in the suburban areas are mostly wood. Our homes here in Florida are mostly concrete. I like the way your stores are so close to homes.

In Russia, you REALLY need to take your shoes off. Also, putting legs in shoes on the seat in front of you in the trains is not a common thing compared to Germany, for example. The reason for that is that after the WWII and especially in the 60-70's Soviet cities were designed in such a bad way (and probably intentionally) that spaces with open soil were left everywhere and mostly not isolated at all. Instead of e.g. lawns, small rocks or smth like that what could keep the dirt away, like in all cities in the developed nations, in Russia every rain- and snowfall causes "shitlavines" of dirt and sand, thus making shoes and cars very dirty. Same for the sidewalks too. And our water drench system is crappy as well, either it's non-existent or it works only partially. That was not a thing in Russian Empire though, because the cities were elaborated in a European way, and not in the communist one.

I think this apartment is very nice. The hallways & elevators are very plain & utilitarian. But the apartment is the exact opposite, as nice as many apartments you'd find in the western world. I like the furnishings, too. He said that they bedroom furniture was dated. It would be something his parents or grandparents would have. I'd guess I'm about his dad's age, maybe a bit older. So I guess that's why I like it. It's rare to find a furnished apartment for rent. $700 USD is inexpensive for a furnished apartment. If this apartment was in the USA, it would cost 2 - 5 times more, depending on the location...

I like the location of the walk in closet, at the beginning of the apartment, practical!

Ладно перенос радиатора.. это семечки (отрезал, заглушил - все счастливы, все довольны). Там демонтаж несущей стены (остатки оной очень хорошо видно между кухней и комнатой) и перенос мокрых зон. (чтоб сделать огромную ванную, владельцы заложили дверь на кухню, а зону ванной увеличили за счет коридора) И если расширение мокрых зон еще согласуемо (то-есть та еще головная боль, но утвердить в муниципалитете можно), то за несущую стену, владельцы могут влететь капитально. вплоть до отчуждения собственности по суду. В Москве прецеденты были. (добавлю маленькую справку. Несущая стена названа так потому, что на нее опираются верхние этажи. Дом строят с огромным запасом прочности, но если убрать несколько соседних несущих стен, дом может рухнуть. Поэтому снос несущей стены считается очень серьезным нарушением. И прежде чем переводить перепланировку с демонтажем даже части несущей стены нужно произвести инженерные исследования и расчеты и добавить специальные балки, распределяющие нагрузку на другие части дома. Есть еще межкомнатные не несущие стены. Они как правило тонкие и демонтировать их можно без особого согласования.)

@@Niagara612 Very true. Autonomy is coming and the elites are setting the world up for 'replacement theology': They're creating AI and AGI as their own creation that replaces humanity. It's EXACTLY why we see this increase in power and control over the mass of humanity.

most Russians have all their housing in private ownership. During the USSR, the state gave apartments to everyone who works. After the collapse of the USSR, Russia- the state created a law- privatization, all these apartments were transferred into the hands of workers for free. Therefore, at least 80% of the population has private housing. If you want to increase the area, they sell the apartment and take more, either cash or a loan (mortgage). Due to the sale of an existing apartment, when buying a new home- the amount is not so large- a large first monetary contribution.

@@Wild-Siberia Hello, I also live from Russia near Siberia, in the Urals, the Republic of Bashkortostan. I hope you are doing well and you are used to our weather 😄 30 years is a lot, wow. My grandmother was given an apartment 3 years after she started working as a doctor, and my spouse's mother was given an apartment 1 year later. Back in the USSR, housing was sometimes increased if children appeared in the family, children of different sexes, separate rooms were needed, so they could give more to the family.
