What do I need to know before moving to Moscow?

"Expats should be aware that Moscow is a large and bustling city with a unique culture and language. It is important to research the city and its customs before moving to ensure a smooth transition. Expats should also be aware that the cost of living in Moscow is high, and it is important to budget accordingly. Additionally, it is important to obtain a visa before moving to Moscow, as well as to register with the local authorities upon arrival. Finally, expats should be aware that the winter months in Moscow can be very cold and snowy, and should plan accordingly," remarked another expat in Moscow, Russia.

"Traffic is usually terrible in Moscow so you should choose an area that's convenient for work, school and anything else you do regularly. We preferred living in the centre as we like going out and being close to the theatres, music and concert halls etc. Some people prefer living out of town in the compounds, mainly for the children. There are some lovely family friendly areas in town too. It's basically about reaching a convenient compromise for your whole family," said a member in Moscow, Russia.
