$1500 has been roughly a going price of a 2 room apartment $1000 (in latter part of 98) to 1600-1700 (now) in the center for about a dozen years. you can certainly find something at this price, and most folks have. i am aware of rented apartments in the center in the 1000 to 1400 range, but these are mostly 1 room places with lofts. i am also aware of very different prices, for example, a fellow lister claims a place that rents for $12,000 or so.
Hi Everyone, Just wondering about something - what exactly is "center"? Inside the Garden Ring? Inside the general area bounded by the metro Circle Line? It's just my impression, so I could be wrong, but there seems to be a "central center" (which is even more highly priced in terms of rent and general prices than the general term "center") which is roughly inside the Boulevard Ring and a small part just below the Moscow River (and a "super premium" location along Tverskaya near Pushkinskaya Ploshad'). Has "center" ever been defined precisely? Are there other categories? I've seen locations advertised as "center" 5 stops outside the Circle Line. Is "center" a formal definition of any sort or just a loose term used in advertising? Is it based on metro? Or districts? I'm also curious about how medical services are classified, is there any formal breakdown? "Russian" and "international" care and so on? Sorry for these sorts of whacky questions. Thanks to all for reading, -- Rob
