Surely many citizens thought about renting or even buying a country house, dreamed of a relaxing holiday in a quiet, and most importantly - environmentally friendly place. Unfortunately, the Moscow Region is built up with endless microdistricts, like mushrooms, budget new buildings are growing. As a result, one can observe transport collapses, industrial enterprises, and inhale the products of their processing.
Let’s try to figure out whether it is possible to find clean air, picturesque ponds and mushroom places, filled with the smells of fresh grass and pine needles. Which areas of the Moscow Region are environmentally friendly from the point of view of experts and local residents.
Criteria for evaluation
Usually, experts use special maps to assess a given region, which indicate the location and number of forests with the structure of the land fund, as well as the influence of nearby industry on nature.
In total, there are three main factor criteria that are most important for the average buyer or tenant of suburban housing. Using them, you can determine the most environmentally friendly area of the Moscow region.
Air
How to find ecological, clean areas of the Moscow Region on a map? Experts consider several critical factors: the location of industrial facilities, a wind rose and congestion of nearby routes with transport.
The wind map is located in such a way that in summer the movement of air masses mainly occurs from the northwest to the southeast, and in winter - from the southwest to the northeast. This was taken into account before the construction of large industrial facilities, which are located on the leeward side, which allows to carry away all the malignant masses from Moscow.
Naturally, in these directions (south and northeast) the air leaves much to be desired, while the western winds do not carry dirt and the indicators are quite favorable.
As for transport interchanges and flows, then everything is somewhat more complicated. It seems to be a safe “Leningradka” in terms of wind rose was recognized as one of the busiest transport routes in the region. Only Rublevo-Uspenskoe and Novorizhskoe shosse are in a winning situation: there are no traffic jams and the track is more or less not loaded with passenger transport.
Ponds
If you want to fish without being afraid to catch a crucian with a rich bouquet from the periodic table, and calmly swim in a clear reservoir, then it is best to look at real estate in the east or southeast of the region. There are ecologically clean areas of Moscow and Moscow region. The Klyazma River and the Moskva River flow in the west and carry their waters through the entire capital, saturated with harmful and dangerous substances, so it is better to avoid the western regions.
The woods
It is worth mentioning how forests affect the ecology of regions. Deciduous and coniferous plantings occupy no more than 40% of the area of the entire region. But from one region to another, this indicator can vary greatly. More or less environmentally friendly areas of the Moscow Region for living are Podolsky, Sergiev Posad and Shatursky, since the largest forest fund area is concentrated here (about 50%).
The least landings in the immediate vicinity of Moscow are the southeastern and eastern regions. There is allocated no more than 10-20% for forest planting and land. Safe (in terms of forests) can be called the western regions of the Moscow Region (30-40%). Landscaping is especially noticeable on the Rublevo-Uspensky highway, where the beautiful and famous fir-tree forest is located.
In general, in order to find green, ecologically clean areas of the Moscow Region, it is necessary to pay attention to the western and southern directions. We will analyze the most distinguished areas separately.
Rublevo-Uspenskoe highway
This area was originally intended for the military and party elite, so any industrial or other objects harmful to the environment cannot be found here. A significant part of the settlements is located directly in the forest, and at a fairly solid distance from the tracks. This guarantees the inhabitants of the area not only peace and quiet, but also clean air.
The Rublevo-Uspenskoe highway and nearby villages are not in vain called ecologically clean areas of the Moscow Region. Even the Moskva River, which should be polluted, is in fact very clean here. You can safely swim and fish. For this, all conditions have been created here: fisheries, beaches on Nikolina Gora, etc.
It is worth noting separately that construction of new facilities in this territory is practically not carried out, so those who wish to move here will have to look for suitable options in the secondary housing market or consider rental offers.
Novorizhskoe highway
Ecologically clean areas of the Moscow Region can be found on Novorizhskoe highway. The enviable popularity in this area was provided precisely by the environmental factor. It has a very beautiful nature, picturesque river places, no traffic jams and serious industrial facilities.
Forests in these places are mostly coniferous, which means that the air is fully saturated with useful phytoncides. It is worth noting that the share of forestry in some villages exceeds 50% of the area. Also, ecologically clean areas of the Moscow Region on Novorizhskoe highway are rich in reservoirs. There are three of them here at once: Ruzskoye, Istrinskoye and Ozerninskoye. In addition, there is a beautiful Trostensky lake on the territory.
As for the housing market, unlike Rublevka, the Novorizhskoe direction continues to be built, so you can buy a brand new house or an elite cottage.
