Very good social services. Medicine is good in general and excellent in Moscow. Safety is good. Public transport is world class. Moscow has the best public transit I've seen anywhere. Government services like getting paperwork done and such are excellent. Compared to West, far far less homeless men on streets. Lots of new and fairly quality living buildings. Job security is high, compared to the west, you can't just be fired for no reason. 28 days a year paid vacation. Maternal leave for 3 years, 1.5 of them paid. Shops are open late till 10-11PM. Mundane life in Moscow is very easy and good.
