General information about the Altai Territory

The land of a thousand lakes, the land of caves and springs.
A place where endless steppe expanses mix with thickets of forests, turn into the blue of mountain peaks and dissolve behind the smoky horizon in the huge sky. Being the heart of the Eurasian continent, the Altai region is rightly named by UNESCO as one of the best places on Earth for recreation and living. A place with an abundance of natural zones in Russia, glorified by Vasily Shukshin in his work, sacred Siberian Shambhala. In addition to mechanical engineering, which is the leading industry in the region, agriculture is widely developed, and the Altai Territory ranks first in the production of environmentally friendly products in Russia. The favorable climate, natural healing resources and the dazzling beauty of the Siberian pearl led to the development of the tourism industry, sports and entertainment recreation and medical and health institutions.

Unfortunately, at the moment the unique ecology of the Altai Territory is rapidly deteriorating. This is mainly due to the heavy and chemical industries that form the basis of the region's economy, as well as the use of a nuclear testing site near Semipalatinsk. At the same time, it is planned to create numerous reserves, wildlife sanctuaries, national parks, and natural monuments.

Geographical location

The Altai Territory borders in the northern part with the Kemerovo region, as well as the Novosibirsk region, with which it is connected by the blue thread of the Ob River. In the southeast - with the Altai Republic, and in the south and west with Kazakhstan, from which it often receives gifts from Baikonur in the form of fragments of rocket stages and the remains of rocket fuel in the air. Plains and mountains...in general, the entire Altai region resembles a hill that increases from northwest to southeast.

There are many caves on the mountain slopes; in some, scientists even find traces of the existence of ancient man. Of the 11,000 lakes in the region, the slightly saline Kulundinskoye Lake (600 km2) is considered the largest. Locals even call it the Altai Sea. It is famous for its mineral waters, healing mud, unique pine shores and sandy beaches. Forest areas are also quite common, among which there are fantastically beautiful ribbon forests.

Climate

Since the Altai Territory is located in the very center of the Eurasian continent, all the oceans are thousands of kilometers away. This means that summer here is most often hot, and temperatures can reach almost Egyptian 40-42 degrees. And in winter there is fairly stable clear weather with severe Siberian frosts, and the temperature can easily drop to −55 degrees Celsius.

The greatest amount of precipitation, 800-900 mm, falls in mountain and steppe areas with ribbon forests. Summer rains and thunderstorms often give way to sunny and clear weather. The number of sunny days in summer is very high, and in this regard, many regions of the Altai Territory can be compared with the best resorts of the North Caucasus and Southern Crimea.

Population

The population of the Altai Territory is 2,398,750 people, most of whom (55.49%), as one would expect, live in cities. Thanks to the vast Siberian expanses, the population density is only 14.28 people/km2. For comparison, the population density in the Leningrad region is 20.87 people/km2, and in the Moscow region it is as much as 158.82 people/km2.

Despite the fact that the birth rate began to increase since 2007, unfortunately, at the moment the population growth rate remains negative. Most likely this is due to the desire of people to live in cities with over a million people, where opportunities for career and growth are much higher. Most of the population (86.79%) are Russians.

Unemployment and average wages

Over the past 8 years, the unemployment rate in the Altai Territory has reached a minimum of 2.4%, and is one of the lowest in the Siberian Federal District. More than 70% of people who applied to employment centers managed to find a job. It is also good news that, as part of the implementation of socially significant work, more than 20,000 temporary and permanent jobs were created, including for unemployed disabled people, large families, etc.

Small businesses were also not ignored: many aspiring entrepreneurs were allocated 60,000 rubles each to develop their business. More than 600 graduates of professional institutions were sent for internships for possible further employment.

With all this, the level of salaries in the Altai Territory occupies a completely disgraceful last 12th place in the district. It is difficult to say whether this is due to the general poverty of the region, the absence of black rivers or nickel mountains, but the fact remains: the average salary of people is no more than 18,000 rubles. For comparison, the average teacher salary in the Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous Okrug is more than 69,000 rubles per month, but in the Altai Territory teachers receive only 15,000 rubles.

Crime

After the murder of the most famous crime boss in Russia, Aslan Usoyan (Ded Khasan), who controlled up to 70% of all thieves in law in Siberia, many law enforcement agencies rightly feared a significant increase in crimes associated with the redistribution of spheres of influence. However, at the moment the crime rate in the Altai Territory is one of the lowest in the Siberian Federal District, and is second only to the Omsk Region.

Meanwhile, the main problem leading to the commission of crimes, as throughout Russia, is alcohol and drugs. According to statistics, in the Altai Territory in 2012, every third crime was committed by a person while intoxicated.

Real estate

It is quite possible to buy a very good two-room apartment on the secondary real estate market in Barnaul, for example, for 2,000,000 rubles, and renting such an apartment will cost you no more than 25,000 rubles per month. Real estate prices are significantly lower than in Moscow and St. Petersburg. But prices for suburban real estate vary quite significantly. Here, as elsewhere, the price depends on personal fantasies, and most importantly, possibilities: the cost of some buildings can reach 20,000,000 rubles, in no way inferior to the capital’s cottages.
