In 2024, Volzhsky experiences significant challenges with crime, as residents voice concerns over increasing crime rates and public safety.
Perceptions of safety vary greatly, with people feeling relatively safer during daylight hours but expressing heightened fears at night.
Volzhsky’s pollution levels are alarmingly high, with air quality being a significant concern due to industrial emissions and limited green space.
Air quality in particular is poor, raising serious public health concerns and leading residents to question the city’s environmental policies.
Noise pollution is prevalent, particularly in busy urban areas where traffic and industrial noise affect the quality of life.
Problems with garbage disposal and cleanliness further exacerbate the city's pollution challenges, contributing to dissatisfaction among residents.
While Volzhsky does have green spaces, their utility and quality are limited, partly mitigating the effects of urban pollution but not entirely conquering these issues.
Drinking water quality appears neutral in public perception, suggesting some trust in accessibility and safety, though room for further improvement remains.
