Biriulevo Eastern
Rating: 5.0
Industrial area. It covers 14.8 square kilometers. Population – 157 thousand people. Location – between Paveletskiy railroad lines and Biryulevo Forest Park. A unique dendrological park is a remarkable feature of this area. The district belongs to the Southern Administrative District. In East Biryulevo the price for 1 square meter makes approximately 164,5 thousand rubles. Quite a bargain in the housing market in Old Moscow.
The area has no particularly developed transport infrastructure, in particular subway stations. And one of the most significant disadvantages of living can be called two adjacent thermal power plants. But in general the area is favorable for housing. In addition, it is rapidly updating – new complexes and houses appear. Although, the market is mostly filled with offers of secondary housing.
Kotlovka
Rating: 4.9
This is an area in the Old Moscow, located in the South-Western Administrative District. Occupied area 3,9 square kilometers. Population number is 66 thousand people. Despite the fact that it is a bedroom community, there are several industrial organizations. On its territory there is quite developed transport infrastructure and entertainment facilities. A significant disadvantage is the lack of subway. But close to the train stations – the area begins just behind the county railroad.
At the beginning of March 2021 in Kotlovka the minimum price per square meter of housing was 220.6 thousand rubles. In the market there are more offers to buy secondary housing, as well as commercial real estate. These are brick houses built in the 50s-70s, as well as Khrushchevki and panel apartment buildings of the 70s. Neighborhood is getting a lot of new construction.
Zelenograd
Rating: 4.8
It is one of 12 administrative districts of Moscow. Includes 5 districts. Population 250.4 thousand citizens. The area covers 37.3 square kilometers. As of 2020 is the smallest in terms of territory metropolitan area. And although it has everything necessary for comfortable living – sports fields, cinemas, parks, squares, entertainment centers – but the transport infrastructure is very mediocrely developed. There are no metro stations, and to get to the nearest ones is quite a long way.
The basic transport load is taken by electric trains and buses. The power plants are almost always overcrowded, and there are constant traffic jams in the direction of the center of Moscow. This is one of the main reasons why the prices of housing in the area are pretty low. The cost of one square meter at the beginning of 2021 was 145.8 thousand rubles. This is a very budget-friendly option by Moscow standards.
Nekrasovka
Rating: 4.7
One more south-eastern district of Moscow with the area of 11,5 square kilometers. Population 83.5 thousand people. Although the area is actively being built with new residential buildings, but the prices here are always low. The main reason for that is the huge, albeit enclosed, landfill in the vicinity. Because of the landfill there is often unpleasant odors in the air, which displeases local residents.
Nevertheless, in Nekrasovka with transport situation is better than in the above districts – there are several metro stations, which significantly reduces the distance to the center of the capital. Also there is a railroad transport and buses.
The cost of one square meter in Nekrasovka is 155.3 thousand people. RUB. Mostly they are new buildings (this also applies to the secondary market), since there is very little of the old housing stock. Active construction of educational infrastructure, like schools and kindergartens, started not long ago. Before that there were problems with free places in the district.
Earlier here was not even infrastructure for recreation and leisure activities. But the situation has started to change, and there is a small park and two youth squares. In the short term there will be another parkland.
