Reasons to choose Mersin for living:
- The city is large and heterogeneous, with cozy suburbs in the mountainous areas and dense buildings in the central districts. It has a very picturesque nature, many citrus orchards, olive groves, ancient fortresses, lakes.
- Infrastructure is developed: there are two universities with campuses, a hospital with the latest equipment.
- An airport will soon open nearby, which will make transportation even more convenient. It is being built 42 km from the city and will serve up to 12 million passengers per year.
- Now those arriving in Mersin use Adana Airport, 70 kilometers from the city, and from there they take an intercity bus.

- There are many new buildings with inexpensive apartments where Russian-speaking foreigners buy homes. The Russian-speaking community is mainly located in the Tezje neighborhood, near the coast with clean sandy beaches. Many people compare Tezje with Mahmutlar in Antalya.
