You should move to his country then, which is Bulgaria.

Look into Belgorod. Great college town an overnight train ride from Moscow.

I'm not entirely sure about visas to these countries, or even Russia for that matter, but it might be worth looking into. Belgrade in particular is Moderator cut: link removed, competitor site, has a lot of Soviet/ Russian influence, and would allow you to exercise your knowledge of the Cyrillic alphabet.
Well, now--there's an idea! Cluj, Romania, has a university, and hosts American college study groups every summer, and also is a center for Western tech companies of various sorts. Beautiful nature outside the city, in nearby mountains, where there are nature preserves, quaint villages, etc.

As to Russia, OP, I'd choose the smaller cities on your list, if I were you: Rostov, Novgorod, and the like. My personal faves are way farther east: Ulan Ade (Buryatia), which Americans love, in part because of the architecture painted Buddhist colors: saffron and maroon, and because of the Buddhist culture. (It does have a university.) Khabarovsk has several universities that accept foreign students, though it's really hot in the summers, Petropavlovsk-Kamchatskii, if you like climbing volcanoes and soaking in hot springs, though it's a bit remote. Close to Alaska, though, and there's a plane connection with Anchorage in the summers.

OK, you may not be interested in any of those, but I just had to enthuse. Carry on, and good luck, wherever you end up. Keep us posted.

To be honest one person immigrating will increase the total count of immigrants here from 3 to 4...yes not thousands or million just 4 people . But I think way in advance about future generations.

I think that's a little extreme.
Not every Russian will survive there, and you want to send an American there. He's so young

Yes we all know Russia has immigrants from Asia and loses emigrants to the West. This has been true, more or less, for the past 800 years.

OP, you could try Tushino if you're looking for one of the cheaper areas of Moscow.
