Is there "Suburbia" area's in Russia?

Travel Tips

But they are starting to crop up, just not at all like in North America.
A have a friend in Russia who is a very depressed architect. His job is to design homes for people who are rich enough to afford to buy a plot of land, have an architect design a home for them and then have it built. My friend is miserable because his clients are terribly rude, treat everyone "lower" (with less money) than them as dung, and usually have terrible taste. These houses get built in new developments on the outskirts (of Moscow and other large cities) -- sprawling plots that have been subdivided and newly dotted with little "Entrepreneurial Baroque" castles. These are the houses of the rich and tasteless, technically a sort of suburbia with the car driving and subdivisions, but just very exclusive in a rather twisted way.

Hmm...at first time hear....sorry never see...may be subartcica....
Not like there are in the States. There are big cities surrounded by areas where people live in huge apartment buildings. Further away from the cities are small towns and villages. Things are very different there. If you live in the city, you probably have a small plot of ground called a dacha) outside of the city where you can raise vegetables and perhaps have a small cabin.
Generally no. When you hear suburbia you picture a middle class family with a medium home. In Russia most people live in apartments and own dachas in a small village nearby. The only ones that have separate homes are either the extremely rich or people that live in the middle of nowhere.
