What do you wish you had known about this particular city/country before moving there?
We didn’t know much at all and were often pleasantly surprised. But be aware of seasonal works on roads and underground infrastructure that sometimes causes water outages. Power outages almost never happen. - Sep 2023
In the winter, it is very hot in the apartment and office buildings as the heat is centrally controlled by the city in typical Soviet fashion and they tend to overheat. We know several people who open their windows when it is 30F degrees outside, because of radiated heat from other apartments. - Aug 2015
