Russia's Transbaikal Territory Offers Cash or Land to Mult-child Families
A new initiative in Russia's Transbaikal Territory offers mult-child families a choice between a cash payment of 200,000 rubles or a free land plot. Around 5,000 families are waiting for plots, with most in Chita where suitable land is scarce. The change comes after many families rejected undeveloped land due to lack of water supply, roads, and electricity. Similar programs in other Russian regions have shown success in improving housing conditions for families. The new law is expected to be adopted in 2026, with 63.4 million rubles already allocated for the payments. Mult-child families in Transbaikal Territory now have a practical choice for improving their living conditions. The new law, set to be adopted in 2026, provides a significant financial option alongside the land plot alternative.
