I'm sure that the City of New York must have information on recent Russian immigrants.  Have you checked thier web page?  www.nyc.gov

There is a large contingency of Russian immigrants and Russian immigrants who have become US citizens living on the northwest side of Indianapolis around College Park.  My husband worked with several of these wonderful people.

Russia is the example and it is not a very old story. They are not doing good, their economy is at the line of crunch. They cannot hold much long.

FYI....Russia has had positive economic growth for several years now. And your personal use of your SUV guarantees that the russian economy will continue to grow. \n\nGiuliani for president. He will clean up the excess spending, pull us out quietly and quickly. He will find a way to profit with china and russia and will have a sitdown about Iran.\nThe Democrats have no chance since it looks like Hillary will be their candidate and all republicans will slit their wrist before seeing that woman in office.

well the laws have changed and the ladies know it,all she would have to do is say he slapped me,russia would back a divorce and you would be held responsible in either country.\n  a fiancee k-1 visa is good for 90 days, if she doersnt work out she goes back without responsibility.\nyou marry the laws now say you could be held for her upkeep the whole time she is in the us, so if she becomes a citizen of the us in four years, then i would suppose this goes back to what the regular laws are though,but until then\nyou aqre responsible for medical dental welfare housing food and whole smear.\ndo a k-1 have fun and settle it later wheh she goes back, or you get married here, just dont do it in russia.\n  as far as older american involved with a younger european,\nmany prefer older men, they are usually not violent when you are older.\n  there are some super sexy females there and they take care of themselves,and dress to entice males.\n they can be fun and dead cold also,so beware they  have different climates of attitude

I asked my Russian wife to translate your messages.  She understands your frustration with having to speak English or another language.  It was also torture for her when she moved from Moscow to the USA 12 years ago.  Now, she communicates very well in English...almost as well as Russian. \n\nI suggest that you keep trying to socialize in English.  Reading and communicating in casual English is the best way to learn.  I know it's torture but if you find the right people to chat with, it can also be fun.  \n\nPlease click my email link anytime if you want to talk more.

It's mostly a market-based economy. Young people with good education are quite well off. People who are retired or close to retirement are in the worst situation - the first don't have skills required now the latter were robbed during the period of hyperinflation in the nineties, when their savings and retirement benefits became worthless.\n\nI've noticed one thing - when you ask people about their income (in Russia it used to be OK to ask this delicate question) they tell you about their official salary (let's say about $ 500 - $ 1000 a month), but not about the income, which would include other part-time jobs, contract work etc., which can be twice their official income. Given the relatively cheap housing for those who were lucky enough to privatize their apartments, low taxes (13% flat rate for residents) and still existing social benefits like almost free education and health care, $1,000-$2,500 might be not as bad as it sounds. I am not talking about Moscow where the cost of living is probably higher than in New York.

People are not the same, different educational level, different social status, different economic situation, etc.  In Russia, there are rich as well poor Russians and the poor must do something to improve their lot.  If they don't see much opportunity right there, they must look elsewhere.  And where else other the America, the land of opportunity.  People who do well in foreign nations do NOT want to come here.  Trust me.  I know some of them personally; they'll never like to live here because they have nothing but contempt for the way of life here.  So, before you go on believing America is a magnet attracting EVERYONE from elsewhere, believe there are those who DON'T want to live here.  They may visit as tourists.  That's it.  By the way, what is a communist answer?

I was born in Russia and lived there for most of my life. Both my parents are Russians. I moved to New York just a year ago. Honestly Russia is not as great as people think. This contry is corrupted to the core and there are no rules and even if they are you can just pay and all your problems are solved. You can pay 300$ and get a driver's licence even if you don't know how to drive and don't know the rules. You can buy a diploma of the best Russian university  for a few thousand dollars and get into any university for approximately the same amount. Well, honestly there's no order in that country. I was born there and lived there for most of my life but they refused to give me Russian citizenship how do you like that??? But the best thing is that people there are open and really know how to have fun and how to live a fun life. That's what I love about Russians.

well....... you should be really careful. i have heard a lot of terrible stories about russian datins sites.  most of them are scam.\nthe thing is..... you join a site and contact a russian girl.  she immediately emails you back with beautiful model looking pics.  she keeps sending you tons of passionate emails everyday and tells you she is in love with you.\nshe tells you she doesn't like the place where she lives because of the financial situation and that she wanna marry an american guy and live in the us.\nshe strongly suggest that you guys should meet in person. you agree and of course she is penniless so you have to send her  money so she could buy an airplane ticket. \nyou send her like $1000 and you know....  she disappers.\nyou are not even sure who you were really talking to after all.  she could be he with fake pics.

That would depend on what exactly u want to know. They are not all cool nor are they all rich, especially now when unemployment is very high. If you are asking in general, they are very hospitable people. Very traditional too. You want more info, just ask. :)

yup, i immigrated- legally!!- from the US to Israel (asia)! \nmy experience was pretty good- y'know, aside from the problems of learning the new language, fitting in... the biggest problem (aside from shopping!) is the anti-americans. many people here (in my circles as a teenage girl!!) are prejudiced against america, americans and anything connected to amwerica. its really annoying!!! like, in addition to all the adjusting issues, you also have to deal with locals with attitude who tell you to "go back to america" and chew your head off every time you speak english (to another american- not to them!!)?!?! plus, many people think that allllll americans are rich- which doesn't sound so bad, but gets reeeeally annoying...\ni don't know nuch about the legal procedures, cause my parents dealt with all that when we moved! \nbut basically, it has its tough parts, but compared to other stuff that goes on around here, i cant complain!!
