Seven reasons to move to Mersin

Until recently, Mersin was known only among the local population of Turkey, who come here for summer vacations and vacations. People interested in history are also familiar with this city, because the history of this place dates back about 8000 years. However, recently, not only historians have become interested in this unique city. Ubiquitous tourists quickly realized that Mersin is ideal not only for recreation, but also for a comfortable full-fledged life. And investors who follow the market situation immediately noticed the emerging trend and are buying up real estate in the region with might and main. Apparently, Mersin's finest hour is very close. What is the secret of such popularity? There are a lot of reasons here.
Firstly, the geographical location of the city provides excellent climatic conditions. The summer period lasts from mid–April to mid-November, and the winter period is very short and quite mild. In this regard, Mersin is very similar to Alanya.
Secondly, the region has a rich historical heritage. The ruins of the ancient Greek city of Soli Pompeipolis, the Mughdat Mosque, the Cathedral of St. Anthony of Padua, the Arab church, the maiden fortress of Kyzkalesi, the ancient city of Olba, the ancient city of Uzunkabruk, Mamure Castle, the Alakhan monastery, Adamkayalar rock sculptures – this is not a complete list of historical pearls of Mersin.
Thirdly, Mersin has the longest coast in Turkey. It is difficult to find such a large number of beaches and beautiful sea coves anywhere else. And as the city develops, the equipment and comfort of these beaches will get better every day.
Fourth, the city's infrastructure is well developed and able to meet the needs of all segments of the population. There are the latest medical centers, well-known universities in the country, a large selection of schools and kindergartens, all grocery store chains are represented, shopping centers and other institutions work. The public transport system is well developed.
Fifth, Chukurov International Airport will start operating in the near future, which will further increase the attractiveness of the province and provide excellent communication not only with the cities of Turkey, but also around the world.
Sixth, there are quite a lot of Russian-speaking residents here. The pioneers, of course, were the workers of the Akkuyu NPP, for whom a whole microdistrict with schools, kindergartens and other infrastructure facilities is currently being built.

The seventh reason is seismic safety. Mersin is officially considered the most seismically safe region of Turkey.

The eighth reason, although the last in the list, is in the first place for many in terms of significance. These are affordable real estate prices. Although apartment prices have increased over the past year, they are still very attractive and affordable.

As you can see, the popularity of Mersin is due to very good reasons. Are you considering Mersin for living or investing?
