What a nice sight of this southern city, Krasnodar. People tend to know the name of big city, but not this one. This one can be seen as one of many nice established cities in Russia. The picture shown is in summer. People wore casual clothes and not thick winter. Wonder what temperature was there.
When we can we travel abroad, and when touring the city by walking or in a tour bus or taking a public bus, we can see the streets and people and
places even in distances clearly. We can sense and feel and consider the environment of that certain place is good or not. Me certainly think this place is a very good place to visit.
Looking at the scenes, one can see a nice blends of scenery of people, places, and nature. In the environment, we can see the clean surrounding is not only clean but orderly, tidy, and very neat, too. A lot of efforts is made by its people in keeping and maintaining them orderly, clean and tidy, and not having to depend on others to clean up littering.
Most people can be seen well behaved, too. Most people can be seen enjoying their good times. They are good naturedly; lived normally, and went about their daily work life balance. When we look at the surrounding people and streets alone, we can see a sense and smell a scent of safety, too. From the look of this well-developed place, it has the scent of peace and safety and tranquility, too.
The scene showed the weather is warm with sunshine. But wonder how this
place is like when in winter?. But overall, this southern city in Russia is good place for a good visit.

Summer time <https://youtu.be/U8zk8NCHN7I>
Summer warm average +25C, winter cold average around zero. In winter
time, things look more gray and dull. Sometimes it's snowing, the snow
is soon melting, hence slush and slippery roads. Winter temperatures
are unstable there, it may be +10C yesterday and -5C tomorrow. Summer
peaks may be up to +40C in some days, winter peaks down to -15C.
The city is considered good for living (excluding those who can not
endure hot summer weather well). Since the early 2000s, its population increased by 1.5 times, reaching million people by now. From the
tourist perspective it may be not so interesting. There's no ancient facilities nor any interesting natural phenomena to watch. The city
was built in low-inhabited steppe since the 19th century. In cultural
sense, the place especially associated with the Cossack heritage.
The city looks pretty clean indeed, but there are some environmental
issues due to abundance of vehicles. Among other Russia's big cities Krasnodar is within the top for the number of cars per capita. And the steppe environment is more vulnerable to air pollution (in comparison
the forest zone).
What is common between the Krasnodar region and China is rice. There's
many waterlogged lands near rivers which have been adapted to serve as
rice plantations. Most of the Russia's domestic rice comes from there.

Thanks for the introductions. Even with no ancient things to see and watch, but there are still things to see and watch from the perspectives of tourists. In all aspects of things to see while in travel, the perspective
of safety and safeness are keys to any tourists. If their travel experience is safe and sound to them, even into the night, to them, they will feel
there is already an attraction waiting on them to confidently experience more. The attraction should start with safety and safeness, and the rest of attractions will follow to them.
Russian cities usually do not have "ghettos" (such areas where poor, disadvantaged or unsettled people are concentrated), and it's what contributes to the sense of safety. Also, homeless, beggars, junkies------------------
and crazy freaks are rare. Russia's crime situation is not extremely perfect, but most of the imperfectness happens not in public spaces.

THE SOCIAL STIGMA OF HOMELESSNESS IN RUSSIA =========================================
Like many social issues, the homelessness crises around the world
has a multitude of underlying factors. To be homeless is not just
about having no physical home. Being homeless is about economic,
social, familial, poverty, mental health and community factors.

THE SOCIAL STIGMA OF HOMELESSNESS IN RUSSIA =========================================
Like many social issues, the homelessness crises around the world
has a multitude of underlying factors. To be homeless is not just
about having no physical home. Being homeless is about economic,
social, familial, poverty, mental health and community factors.
Like many countries, homelessness in Russia has been perpetuated
for decades by the historical stigma which has prevented transitional
change since Russia’s move to a market economy.
Historical Ties
---------------
Homelessness in the Russian Federation dates back centuries, but
the inception of its modern homelessness can be traced back to the
fall of the Soviet Union in December of 1991. After this, the Russian Federation was formed and communism was replaced with a market economy.
Five years after the transition, roughly 1.5 million of Russia’s
147.2 million population found themselves homeless.
In communist Russia, vagrancy and begging were punished with a minimum two-year prison sentence so many homeless were classified as felons.
In addition, the state government would aggravate the problem by
revoking residency permits, so many felons would assume transient
lifestyles after leaving prison. After Soviet-era vagrancy laws were repealed in 1992, major cities experienced an influx of homeless populations. The new market economy saw major disparities in wealth,
driving people from their traditional roles and into the streets.
The implementation of the registration system in Russia worsened the homeless crisis. The registration system required those without housing
to either acquire sponsorship from a relative who already had adequate living space or to purchase real estate. This system, coupled with the
new market economy, lead to widespread real estate crime. Individuals
with little to no knowledge of the real estate market were easily manipulated and scammed out of affordable long-term housing.
Homelessness Today
------------------
Today, homelessness in the Russian Federation is the problem everyone
knows about but no one wants to address. According to Rosstat, the government organization responsible for tracking homelessness in the
Russian Federation, there are 64,000 homeless people in Russia.
However, the organization has not compiled new data since 2010.
The real number is estimated to be roughly 5 million, approximately
3.5 percent of Russia’s population. These estimates correspond with reported numbers on Russians living below the poverty line. Out of Russia’s 144.5 million population, 13.3% live below the poverty line.
One of the most common issues that the homeless in Russia face is the
loss of legal documents, such as passports and residency permits. Once Russian citizens lose these documents, they are no longer eligible to receive free social or medical care and have no path to recovering
these benefits. Compounding the problem is the widespread exploitation
of those without legal documents. Companies who rely on homeless
populations for inexpensive labor often do not follow through on paying wages. When homeless workers are paid, they face scrutiny and exploitation from the police who are at liberty to take advantage of undocumented people.
Social Stigma
-------------
The unofficial mantra of the Russian Federation in regard to homelessness is, “out of sight, out of mind”. Although there are more homeless shelters
in Russia today than in the past, they are sparse and inaccessible, many times located in the outskirts of districts. The Lyublino shelter has
served as the primary center tackling the homelessness crisis for the
last ten years. The shelter provides much-needed aid such as food, shelter, clothing, legal and medical services to its patrons. There are currently
six shelters on the outskirts of Moscow including the largest, Lyublino,
and five smaller ones. Plans for a homeless shelter in the city center
were scrapped after widespread backlash from city residents. Instead,
30 vans patrol the city, picking up homeless and driving them to shelters nearly 15 kilometers outside the city center. Although these shelters are proof of progress, the societal response to ignore the issue prevents a head-on approach to tackling homelessness.
Other cities in the Russian Federation are addressing both the issue of homelessness and social stigma. In St. Petersburg, the Nochlezhka NGO
feeds, counsels and shelters homeless populations. Funded mostly by donations, the crown jewel of the organization is a 4-story rehab center that houses roughly 50 people. In 2017, The Moscow Times reported that
145 people passed through the shelter and 51% now live in permanent homes. In 2018, in addition to their rehabilitation program, the organization provided food, shelter & legal services to 9,000 homeless in St. Petersburg. The organization also helps to educate Russian citizens on how people become homeless and what can be done to help. Through educational efforts, they hope to eliminate the decades-old stigma of homelessness. The organization’s
work has been largely successful in St. Petersburg; however, the homeless stigma still persists in Moscow where an estimated 100,000 people are homeless. Nochlezhka hopes to employ the same measures that worked in
St. Petersburg to Moscow.
Unraveling the decades-long homeless crisis in the Russian Federation
can't be done overnight. The largest challenge is not just overcoming homelessness itself by providing more shelters, but eliminating the
stigma associated with it. As mindsets change, organizations educate
and the Russian state government stops pushing homelessness out of sight, the state can ultimately overcome one of its most trying challenges.

Homelessness is happening in every country. It is a growing problem.
Homeless people can grow into millions. Most times, nobody wants to know how many were there in their city. Upon complaints, they were removed out of sight from them. The mainstream people were happy to see their property increased in value. When they were out of sight and out of mind, it pleases the people in managing the city, too.
Basically, the homeless people were moved elsewhere out of the city. They gathered themselves elsewhere for their shelters and formed their own protection, too. They look out for each other, and hence, they resigned to begging for foods and money. Their family sometimes joined them, too.
