Today I was checking out Russian "highways" and cities on Google Maps and Street View, and it was as depressing as one could expect, but one city really surprised me with the uniquely high level of infrastructure and architecture and vibe (for Russian standards).
That city is Khanty-Mansiysk. The first thing that struck me was that it has raised curbs everywhere and proper sidewalks--instead of the same asphalt on the same level as the street separated only by a worn-out patch of grass (a constant in Russia).
Then I was amazed by the rest of the infrastructure, sewers and proper drains everywhere, well-kept road markings, and the city being walkable with the buildings being human-sized and not inhumanely monstrously big, and the distances between buildings being normal, too. I was additionally surprised by the varied and nice (for Russian standards) architecture--in almost all of Russia it's very samey, cookie-cutter Soviet or neo-Soviet commieblock stuff. Also the facades are renovated/new, at the very least all the facades are CLEAN.

I recommend you to check out Khanty-Mansiysk on GSV yourself, you won't be disappointed.
Russian anons, do you know of Khanty-Mansiysk?

first off i tried confirming this on wikipedia, but there it only said it's a skiing resort
and i don't see any oil/gas installations in the vicinity of the city
secondly, there are plenty of oil/gas-based cities in russia with nominally high incomes but which look like absolute shit, in fact this is usually the case

That might be it actually. If it's a tourist destination, whether foreign or domestic, making the streets look good is not optional. In an actual oil & gas region, it kind of is. Natural resource extraction is going to make money no matter how apocalyptic the surroundings look.
Like, look at Norilsk. According to an unsourced claim on Wikipedia it produces 25% of the world's platinum, but I'm not getting the impression that much of that stays in Norilsk. If a ski resort looked like this, people would just ski elsewhere, even if the slopes weren't as good.

dude...

Yes, the Khanty-Mansiysk region—officially known as the Khanty-Mansi Autonomous Okrug (Yugra)—is one of the most oil-rich areas in Russia and the world .

Key Facts About Oil in Khanty-Mansiysk Region
Major Oil Producer: The region accounts for approximately 42% of Russia’s total oil production.

Global Impact: At its peak, it contributed over 7% of the world’s oil supply.

Oil Fields: It hosts around 450 developed oil fields, including Samotlor, Russia’s largest and one of the world’s biggest oil fields.

Priobskoye Field: Located near Khanty-Mansiysk, this field produces hundreds of thousands of barrels per day and is operated by major companies like Rosneft and Gazprom Neft.

Recent Production: In 2023, the region produced 216 million tons of oil, despite a slight decline due to OPEC+ agreements and aging fields.

i wonder if you're NEETing surviving on momma's dinners to believe these figures are real, or a paid government disinfo shill
every single russian with a brain laughs at this bullshit, especially the epic skyrocketing figures conveniently happening since 2022

the reality is the only epic skyrocketing thing is inflation, 33% in 2022, 23% in 2023 and 18% in 2024
the net median salary is still around 40 thousand rubble ($400)
and with the interest rate at 21%, the economy is kill. simply kill.

it shows pictures. of streets. where the google car chose to drive.

it doesn't show you back yards. indoors. streets the car didn't take. it doesn't show you smells, sounds, weather. it doesn't show you a human visual perspective (equivalent to a 35mm pinhole camera projection with minimal distortion coefficients), but rather a heavily distorted spherical projection.

it only shows you the parts you chose to sample yourself by scrolling back and forth driven by your own preferences, not necessarily the parts you'd have to actually move through in day to day life.

like that time when you tried to tell me that houses here generally don't have fences, while pretty much every detached home I and most Latvians actually see IRL has a bulky fence.

>when you tried to tell me that houses here generally don't have fences, while pretty much every detached home I and most Latvians actually see IRL has a bulky fence.
nah, it's just not true or you imply that google photoshops pictures by removing fences
obviously i am not always able to see all of the country on gsv due to lack of time so my opinions might not be always accurate but they are still always better than what i'd get if i were there in person - because during 1h walk on google street view i am able to see like 10x more streets than i would do that in the same time span in person

>>213680433

but we're talking about different things - you accuse me of checking wrong places - it doesn't mean gsv is bad for assessing living standards in the country, it simply shows that the users of gsv might do cherrypicking which leads to misconceptions about the country, that's a different thing

gsv is just a tool and as a tool it is perfect - simply the users of tools are not perfect

I stated beforehand that traditional conservatives mostly support Russia and neoconservatives support Ukraine. There's a huge difference between these two. Traditional conservatives are real conservatives and neocons are just supporters of the idea of spreading the American world. They support ukraine not because they think ukraine is right, but because they want to damage Russia. The same with israel: neocons just want to establish Pax Americana in the middle east, with gay parades and neolibetal policies robbing the population.
