The life of a resettled woman in a modular town in Lviv: 5 people can live in a room for 4, you can forget about personal space

I live in Lviv and now there is only one modular town for immigrants – there used to be 3, but we were pushed into one town.

This is how it looks from the air, there are only 8 two-story buildings. This was reported by a contributor with the nickname Chattering Dwarf✧ on the social network Kh.

Life in the town is not sugar, but it is much better than living on the street/at the gym.

As I said earlier, there are only 8 buildings with 2 floors each. I don’t know how it is in other houses, but in ours there are 72 people living on the first floor, and about 60 people on the second. The town is designed for 1400 people, but at the moment we have approximately 900 people

Each floor has a common kitchen, a playroom (just a big room where children can play/do lessons/learn online). The photo shows the kitchen, they are the same in all houses, but each floor can put furniture as it is convenient for them.

It is clear that everyone will not go to the same shower, so there is a separate men’s/women’s toilet and shower, they are at different ends of the corridor. Inside, they look like this

The houses are located inside as in the photo, there are batteries along the corridor, so in winter we are more or less warm:

Apparently, many people are interested in what the house itself looks like from the inside

It looks like the photo, the area (I could be wrong) is 12-15 sq m. It is designed for 4 people (because there are only 4 beds), but 5 people can live there. Of all the furniture, there is a table, 2 stools, 4 beds and 2 wardrobes

Of the advantages of living in such a town

Completely free with the exception of Internet charges/free meals at the expense of the city.

Of the minuses

Mold can collect in the corners, if you don’t clean it, you start coughing hard. I had such that we could not get her out for a very long time and I coughed up blood. When the light is turned off for a long time, it is very cold in the house, because it is made of metal.

Noise insulation is very bad, so if your neighbors are quarreling, you sit and listen to their screams word for word. In the summer, the house heats up VERY STRONGLY and there is literally nothing to breathe. Since there is little space here, you cannot have many things, because there is nowhere to put them.

You may be unlucky with your neighbors and you will quarrel forever/maybe kra
your things, etc. (we had such cases).

You can forget about personal space, because it simply does not exist here. It’s still ok if only students live in the house, and not like me with my parents.

And so, in principle, it is not particularly different from an ordinary hostel, you just don’t pay for anything, except for the Internet / some joint purchases for the kitchen.

 

To be honest, I envy those people who live in an apartment/house, because for the second year I’ve been dreaming of just taking a bath in an ordinary bathroom, and not standing in a microscopic shower. Or it’s banal to lie on a big bed with a star, instead of curling up on the bed.

Therefore, appreciate the fact that you have your own roof over your head and you don’t live like me. To all beavers, donate to the ZSU and read the chattering gnome
