Perhaps there are some people from Ukraine who's going to Crimea by force of habit in summer. As for me it's not reasonable to go there in order to get the rest. High prices for minimum comfort and some new inconvenients when you cross the border. Some people from ukranian sities have worked in Crimea for ages so they may think about making money at peninsula nowadays.
Hearing there's a lot of Ukrainians moving into Crimea and not for vacation. No solid numbers yet but it appears to be in the thousands.
Heard this from a Kremlin funded news source? You have no idea what you are talking about, no Ukrainians are moving to Crimea unless there is a family reason or a particular skillset need, plus they would need to immigrate under Russian law without the aforementioned family connection.
Who in their right mind would move to the place with a higher cost of living, is under sanctions and has an uncertain real estate legal situation. Not to mention, they can't retain Ukrainian citizenship and still live there. I know someone who can't sell their place in Simferopol. I should let him know that I heard that thousands of people are moving there so what's his problem? He lives across the border in Kherson and rents the apartment waiting for the situation to stabilize so he can sell.

Heard it from a forum, may not even be anything other than the regular spring migration. Keeping an eye out for anything more.
I think that's the best solution. Western Ukrainians have been mistreated by all of their neighbors in the past. Not just the Russians. They should have their own country. Ukraine is one of those "artificial" states made without regard to the people that lived there.
Interesting lecture by A. Miller (Russian historian). It is 2011. The most interesting part is from 30 minutes. 3 parts of the Ukrainian society.
1. Ukrainian-speaking Ukrainians.
2. Russian-speaking Ukrainians.
3. Russian (17% of the population).
And the correct conclusions, which were confirmed in 2014.
