The main type of buildings is five-story buildings. They are diluted with individual buildings. Mirny is popular among vacationers.

Nakhalovka and Tovarnaya station

The Nakhalovka microdistrict and Tovarnaya station are located side by side with the Aviagorodki microdistrict.

There is rampant crime in these areas, local residents They try not to leave the house at night, and from other microdistricts they avoid Nakhalovka. There are a lot of gypsies here, and hence the drug trade. The infrastructure includes kindergartens, supermarkets, small shops and a clinic. Housing is the cheapest on the Evpatoria real estate market. Mainly private houses. Areas such as Nakhalovka and Tovarnaya station can only be compared with Chicago, which is also considered a crime-ridden city.

Slobodka

The boundaries of the district extend over quite a considerable distance. The basis of the development is private households. This microdistrict is characterized by one-story and two-story houses and private hotels.

Old city

The streets of this microdistrict with all its buildings are of historical value, some of them are architectural monuments.

The microdistricts have everything necessary for people's livelihoods, since the center of Evpatoria is far from them. Housing prices are quite affordable; apartments in new buildings can be purchased from 30 to 60 thousand dollars.

District "Plans"

Many houses here have a rich history, and were built during the Crimean Khanate. The northwestern part of the city is the so-called “Modern City”, where multi-storey buildings (up to 18 floors) are located. Here the street layout is radically different from the Old Town. Wide ears and avenues dominate here. The northern part of the city is completely given over to industrial enterprises.

The city's territory is conventionally divided into several districts, including Old city, where the distance to the sea is only 700 meters, the Sanatorium-Kukort zone, whose permanent population is no more than 7,000 people, as well as others.
