Why is the Trans-Urals region becoming one of the most promising destinations for compatriots to relocate to today? The answer lies in the figures: back in 2024, Kurgan Oblast ranked first in Russia for the rate of growth in industrial production. Here, extensive career opportunities go hand in hand with unique support measures, from free land plots to housing subsidies of 1 million rubles. This is a region that values skilled workers and intellect, offering young people the conditions for a confident start and mature families stability.

The region’s economic leap has triggered explosive demand for specialists. Leading industrial giants such as Kurganmashzavod, Kurganstalmost and SHAAZ are not merely looking for employees—they are competing for them.

  • For professionals: salaries for skilled workers and engineers: 150 000 – 180 000 rubles.
  • For young people: free retraining programs and scholarship projects (up to 50 000 rub.) are available to students enrolled in targeted programs.

Kurgan Oblast offers some of the most generous housing support measures in Russia:

  1. A subsidy of 1 000 000 rubles for building or buying your own home.
  2. 500 000 rubles as a grant toward the down payment on a mortgage when buying an apartment in a newly built building.
  3. The opportunity to buy a log house with a sauna at a fixed price of about 105 000 rubles.
  4. Newcomers can receive a land plot for farming or construction on preferential terms.

The region is actively investing in quality of life. In recent years, hundreds of kilometers of roads have been renovated, and dozens of new schools and modern medical centers have been built.

  • For large families: compensation for 30% of utility costs, free meals for schoolchildren and students, as well as regional payments of up to 300 000 rubles for special merits as parents.
  • For participants in the compatriot resettlement program: relocation allowances are paid (150 thousand rubles to the applicant and 70 thousand rubles for each family member), and relocation and property transportation costs are reimbursed.

Questions of personal and public safety in Kurgan Oblast are addressed within the framework of the Russian Federation’s unified high standards. As in any other region of the country, a stable level of law and order is maintained here. The work of law enforcement agencies, the development of the Safe City and video surveillance systems, as well as the traditionally close-knit and friendly local community create a peaceful atmosphere for living and raising children. You can be confident that your rights and your family’s safety are protected.
