Moving to Mariupol

Although Mariupol is an industrial city with a very important commercial port, it’s surrounded by agricultural land. There are also many green, open spaces to be found within the city itself. Any expatriate moving to Mariupol should be able to find all the goods they need in the plentiful shops. If not, there’s a multi-story mall, plus several markets to explore. Out of all the foreign languages spoken in the city, English is the most popular, but the majority of inhabitants speak only Ukrainian and Russian. Similarly, local passenger transport information is in Ukrainian or Russian. So, while there’s an extensive transport service, consisting of bus, trolleybus and tram routes to choose from, it’s best to plan your journey well beforehand. Education is good, with schools practice 5 levels of education, from pre-school to postgraduate, and Mariupol can boast internationally recognized universities.
