In Moscow it`s popular to get married to nonresidents.
September is a very popular month to get married. According to the statistics, 2005 is the record year for marriages made between Moscow residents and provincials. According to the information given by the Registry Office of Moscow, this year from 49 thousand of marriages 18,4 marriages were made by the residents of the capital with: provincials, people from other regions and people without citizenship. 36% of all the marriages fall into this category.
It?s commonly known why the provincials want to get married the Moscow residents: in the capital it?s easier to find job, salary is higher, and there are a lot of entertainments. But there is a question - why the well-to-do Moscow residents marry foreigners? It?s unexplainable. Psychologists, sociologists and lawyers couldn?t find the answer.
