Crime
The crime situation in the city is relatively stable.
Major murders, robberies, and robbery rarely occur here. Maniacs or serial killers rarely appear. Once there was a case when a maniac appeared in the district beyond the river Biysk, attacking lonely girls from behind. However, he was quickly caught and his existence was forgotten. Of course, petty robberies, domestic fights and murders, accidents and arson constantly occur here. But usually criminals are quickly found and punished. If it weren’t for the gopniks who sometimes fight in the streets, then it would be possible to live peacefully in Biysk. There is also a larger, organized crime network that “protects” small and medium-sized businesses and controls individual large organizations, but their activities do not extend to ordinary Biysk residents, and therefore are not particularly noticeable.
What is most alarming is the situation with the spread of drugs - as you know, Biysk has been considered the drug capital of the region for several years. Moreover, heroin and its derivatives are mainly distributed here. Naturally, serious people are behind the distribution of drugs, which is why the channel has not yet been blocked.

We will share a song for happiness with you. Let everyone pull up in any distance. Let's all celebrate our beloved city on the Biya River together today. A dazzling solar disk floats to the sound of the bells and the blue sky. We glorify the son of Russia tirelessly, We glorify our city named Biysk!

What is Biysk famous for?
- In Biysk there is Fomchenko Square, which locals call the “Heart of Biysk”. There is a stele here in memory of fellow countrymen who died during the Civil War. The square got its name in honor of one of the dead revolutionaries. In 2008, the reconstruction of the square was completed: a memorial complex and a mournful cross were added, and the territory of the square was laid out with marble tiles.
- Also on the territory of Biysk - in a residential area in a forested park area - there is a planetarium, which is known among local residents as the “Dome”. The planetarium received its second name due to the fact that the building looks like a dome.
- In 2008, the Museum of the History of the Altai Spiritual Mission opened in the city, which consists of three floors. On the first and second floors of the museum, visitors can see more than 10,000 exhibits, among which is the first printed book “Octoechus”, which was published at the beginning of the 17th century. There is also a collection of copper items, icons, crosses, etc. On the third floor of the building there was a single-altar church.
- In Biysk there is the Mansion of the merchant Vasenev, built in pseudo-Russian style with relief windows and decorative superstructures on the roof. A local merchant previously lived in the house. Today the mansion is an architectural monument.
- In 1920, the first folk museum in Siberia, the V. V. Bianki Museum of Local Lore, opened in Biysk. It was founded by archaeologist S. M. Sergeev, V. V. Bianki, and entomologist B. F. Belshev. The building consists of two floors and 18 halls. In the museum, visitors can get acquainted with the history of the Altai region: archaeological excavations, models and stuffed animals, valuable artifacts. Every year the Museum of Local Lore holds more than 20 exhibitions.
Interesting buildings
The city of Moscow: geographical location, relief, population, area, climate
In the old center of the city of Biysk on Sovetskaya Street there is a marvelous architectural structure - the majestic white-stone Assumption Cathedral. The first work on its construction began at the end of the 19th century. The building was made in pseudo-Russian (Byzantine) style. The erected temple functioned until 1932. Then it was closed for several years. Grain was stored in the building during this period. The re-opening of the church took place in 1947. Today the cathedral is operational.
It is impossible to tell about all the interesting buildings, because there are so many of them. Let's take a closer look at the building of secondary school No. 4 in the city of Biysk, the photo of which is presented below. This educational institution with the status of a school was opened in 1904 by order of Nicholas II in the historical part of the city (Kazanka). In 1911, the educational institution acquired a new building on Arkhiereyskaya Street (now Shevchenko). During the war, an evacuation hospital operated here, as evidenced by the memorial plaque. Today the building houses a school. In 2004, it celebrated its centenary.
At first glance, Biysk seems to be a simple and unremarkable city. In reality this is not the case. Today it is considered the locomotive of innovative development of the region and the country as a whole. Important enterprises and organizations operate there, there are effective educational institutions, and history and culture have been preserved. The administration of the city of Biysk will do everything necessary for its development. Systematic work will make it possible to preserve and effectively use production, scientific and technical potential, and create comfortable conditions for the life and creativity of city residents.
Characteristics of the city of Biysk, Altai Territory
If we look at the modern city of Biysk on the map of Russia, we will see a large science city, which is the center of Southern Siberia, which is the administrative center. The city's research and industrial sectors are growing steadily, which helps maintain the region's economy at a high level.
Geographically, Biysk is located in the Altai Territory of Russia and ranks second in the region in terms of population (about 200 thousand people). There are many research and development complexes in Biysk, which makes it possible to immediately test and launch high-tech developments on the market.
History of the formation of the city:
- In 1709, on maps, at the confluence of the Biya and Katun rivers, a fortification was erected to protect the southeast of the state and its trade routes. Later, the fortress was destroyed, but restored by a fortress on the banks of the Biy River, and in 1782 it became part of the Kolyvan region as a district town.
- In 1804, the Biysk district of the Barnaul district became part of the Tomsk province. In 1864 he changed the military focus to the development of industry and trade. Many diverse enterprises are being built, including metalworking, food processing, and tanneries, supported by an abundant number of banks located in the region.
- At the end of the 19th century, Orthodox religious teachings were successfully developing in Biysk;
- During the Great Patriotic War, the city remained an industrial center, vital factories were transported here, and 23 military hospitals were located in Biysk.
Enterprises and work in Biysk
Among the large city-forming enterprises, the following can be named: State Unitary Enterprise BPO "Sibpribormash", Federal Research and Production Center "Altai", Biysk Oleum Plant, Spetsavtomatika, Biysk Boiler Plant, Altaivitamin and Evalar. Other businesses and organizations are so small that they are not worth paying attention to in this review.
Sibpribormash
In principle, all of the listed organizations have a decent level of remuneration, but only if you can be called a highly qualified specialist. They value engineers, marketers, technologists, managers, and so on.
Workers who occupy low-level positions will not earn as much in any of the enterprises. For example, the pharmaceutical company Evalar constantly recruits workers for seasonal work in the fields, but does not intend to pay them much. And for other workers, too harsh working conditions have been created that not everyone can withstand.
Harsh working conditions exist both at Altaivitamin and at all factories. Although, at the Biysk Oleum Plant they willingly hire men to perform various types of work and pay them decent wages.
The same can be said about the Boiler Plant, where, however, it is not so easy to get a job. It is more difficult for women to find work in Biysk, although they will always be accepted in the same trade - if you want, you can get a job in the Maria Ra, Anix, Forne retail chains. In general, the city still relies on small and medium-sized businesses, which are much easier to get a job, albeit not always officially, but also from which it is easier to “fly out onto the street.”
Districts and real estate of Biysk
Their unofficial names and the unofficial division of Biysk are worth mentioning separately. First of all, they highlight the Center - one of the prestigious areas where the city's elite used to live, but now all segments of the population have settled. The Center contains all the main administrative buildings, ancient houses and large parks. Apartments here are some of the most expensive in the city.
Drama theater and city post office building in the city center
Separately, it is worth mentioning Zarechye - a part of the city that represents a huge private sector. This area is unique in that there are almost no good roads except the central ones, few streets are illuminated and few houses have running water, and if they do, it is only cold. Houses here stand differently depending on the street and distance from the Kommunarsky Bridge.
One of the luxury cottage villages of Biysk is also located here - it is located not so far from one of the orphanages and is, in fact, a separate settlement of wealthy people in the city.
Zarechye
Zarechye is one of the most densely populated areas and one of the places with the highest concentration of less educated people. In terms of the number of such people, Zarechye can only be rivaled by Lesozavod, Mochische and Pianyi Kvartal, where the population is still smaller. All these areas are either private sectors or sectors where there are two-story wooden or four-story buildings.
At night, if you are not local or are not closely acquainted with someone local, it is better not to appear in these areas. Why? This will be discussed further.
Separately, it is worth noting the dynamically developing area, which is popularly called Zelenka. Large shopping and entertainment centers are now concentrated here. Plus, new houses are being built, which are not cheap and which are bought by high-ranking and simply wealthy people of the city.
Biysk Technological Institute
Zelenka and another district - Children's World - are often called the youth centers of Biysk. This is how it really is. Moreover, not only because of the entertainment centers, but also because most of the city’s educational institutions are concentrated there.
The AB district is interesting - the greenest and most comfortable area of the city. There is probably no point in describing it, since its beauty cannot be expressed in words. In addition, this area is now also actively being built, which makes it possible to purchase apartments in modern new buildings, standing among luxurious pine trees.
You shouldn’t walk alone at night in Gora, a densely populated area where the majority of the population is not the most prosperous people. Among them there are many who abuse alcohol and use drugs. There are many who once or very recently were imprisoned. The houses here are mostly private, not very beautiful, and sometimes even completely rubbish. There's not much to see here during the day. Here, on the Mountain, at the very beginning of it, the main wholesale bases are located. Other areas of Biysk are unremarkable.
It is not worth talking separately about the cost of houses and apartments in different areas of the city, because the prices do not differ too much. If you're lucky, you can buy houses here for 500 thousand rubles. and one-room apartments cost from 1.3 million rubles and above.
