Hello! 1.My 5 most important factors in livability of a city are: Economy Environment Job opportunities Infrastructure (including transport, social infractructure etc) Safety 2. Why do I live here? -Moscow is my hometown. Its not about livability but means a lot. Most of my friends live here. My family live here. I do love this city despite the shortcomings -Architecture and my favourite places in the city. There are many magnificent places i really like. But It s not about modern buildings (in the majority in my city it is ":((((((" to my mind). (some of my favourite photos of Moscow are in the picture) -Native culture. I deeply respect other cultures and even other ways of thinking in trivia because of which people often quarrel. I like travelling and see smth new, but i miss home and I want to go back -Beautiful nature not far from the city. I spend almost every weekend in our country house (1 hour by car). I like our nature. it`s not bright, the climate is not good : long spring and autumn, rains :( But generally the nature is beautiful. something like delicate, calm beauty, when you learn to love the details. Also It varies greatly (winter vs summer) -Job opportunities. It is not easy, but my education allows me to find a good job and live here.But I understand that in other countries with high living standards people have more opportunities 3. To what extend does Moscow fulfill my ideal livability criteria? - Economy 60 - Environment 60 (Moscow+suburb) 30 for Moscow - Job opportunities 70 - Infrastructure (including transport, social infractructure etc) 30 - Safety 70 4.What to change? -Economy in the whole country -Density of population -Transport (no traffic jams!) 5.Three places that I would select to move Moscow countryside Krasnodar region in Russia (good climate) Tampere (Finland) Why? Climate,Environment,Culture,Economy,Job Thank you, Maria Balakireva
