UrBC, Yekaterinburg, September 14, 2015. 66% of Russian citizens have left their home constituency at least once in the last two decades, and 80% of them would like to travel domestically in the near future, Levada Center's recent survey findings indicate.

Only 8% of respondents, however, are interested in coming to the Urals. This is a long way from the top three most coveted territories: the Crimean Peninsula (38%), Saint Petersburg (31%), and Sochi (30%). At the same time, the Urals are more popular than Western Siberia (4%), the Volga River basin (4%), and the North Caucasian republics (3%).

The survey was carried out on August 7-10, 2015 and involved 800 people in the 18+ age group in 134 cities and towns in 46 Russian Federation constituencies. The interviews were conducted in person in the respondents‘ homes.
