5 best areas of Irkutsk for living

This area can be called one of the youngest and not only by the date of formation, but by the age of the population. It was formed by the merger of two districts and several villages.At the moment, the area is actively built up and growing. Housing in new buildings is quite affordable here, the choice is large, which attracts young families with children. The infrastructure is still underdeveloped, but there is no shortage of kindergartens, schools and clinics. Given the growth of the area, they are built in the first place. Leninsky is located far from the city center, but there are no problems with transport. Two minuses - part of the area is considered environmentally unfavorable, smog is strongly pronounced here and an aircraft factory is operating.

The historical and cultural center of the city is a beautiful place with abundant plantings, squares, monuments, and entertainment venues. In terms of infrastructure, this is an excellent area where there is no shortage of public transport, shopping centers, shops, restaurants, and educational institutions. There are almost no new buildings here, the main part of the offers is secondary real estate.Housing prices are high, starting at an average of 3,000,000 rubles for a small apartment. Despite the landscaping and developed infrastructure, the city center is not the best place to live. It is located in a lowland, the number of cars is huge, smog, which is already considered normal for Irkutsk, is more pronounced here.

Kuibyshevsky is a continuation of the historical district of the city - Kirovsky. They belong to the same administrative district - Pravoberezhny. The area is distinguished by a developed infrastructure, an abundance of educational, medical and cultural institutions. Here you can buy resale property in old houses or consider options in one of several new buildings. But life in the city center can hardly be called comfortable due to severe air pollution (this area is considered one of the most unfavorable in terms of ecology), busy roads.Therefore, despite the many schools, institutions of additional education, it is better to consider other areas with children.

Successful area in terms of ecology and comfort of living. It is located on the left bank of the Angara, far from the center, greener than other parts of the city. Due to the large number of new buildings, the choice of apartments here is not bad, and prices are not higher than in other areas. It is divided into several neighborhoods, each of which has a well-developed infrastructure - it has its own kindergartens, schools, and a good selection of shops. Akademgorodok is considered the most comfortable in terms of living - it is quiet, calm, with many squares and small groves. In the Sverdlovsk region, things are also going well with higher educational institutions - several universities are located on its territory. Minus - not very convenient to get to the center.

One of the most popular areas at the moment. Geographically, it borders on the central part of the city, the largest Baikalskaya street passes through it. The cost of housing is high, but the area is being actively built up, among new buildings you can find relatively advantageous offers. There is also a microdistrict, which is considered by the residents of Irkutsk to be the most favorable in terms of ecology and comfort of living - Solnechny. The houses here are only new, it is located far from the very center, so the air is cleaner. The microdistrict's own infrastructure is well developed - shops, educational institutions, kindergartens, clinics. Good place for families with children. Right behind it there are two cottage settlements with beautiful but expensive houses.
