Prokopevsk is a coal mining city where boiler houses work all year around. No wonder that snow
is dark there. It's scary to imagine what the citizens of the city breathe in...

of the principles of the guest workers who are building a house in Tomsk.
Pevek is the northmost city of Russia. 25 000 people used to live here, 2 500 have remained... Life in Pevek is expensive and boring. The city has two cafes and one of them will probably close soon... No movie theatres, no night clubs... The city lives from plane to plane that arrive once in 2 weeks.
Everyone knows when the next plane arrives, cause it means that fresh food will appear in the shops. Prices here are unbelievably high but an average salary of a waitress, for example, is about 1000 US dollars. According to locals a 3 roomed flat could be changed for a ticket to Moscow...
7th of April, 2012 the Moscow airport Domodedovo turned 50! It's big, comfortable and modern. Each day the airport is changing for the better. It was the first airport to accept Aeroexpress trains. It was the first to begin reconstruction and become the most modern airport of Russia. One year ago it set an absolute record of flights sent off. 425 planes
left the airport with 51 000 passengers. 25 March 1964 was the day of the first passenger flight by TU-104 from Moscow to Sverdlovsk. On 20 May 1964 they opened the air-terminal complex. Regular flights have been performed since 1966. Today we are going to show you some archival photos of the airport and some modern ones.

Nevertheless, you have something to compare with...
Despite the huge update going on across the country there still happen to be some places that lack of the funding even in the capital of Russia, Moscow. This used to be a
statistical research facility, however it's pretty weird to find a govermental structure (Russian Statistics Commitee department) in such a condition in Moscow.
