Face-to-face interview: PAPI Population of the 4 biggest cities in Kazakhstan (Astana, Almaty, Karaganda, Pavlodar) Households within the four cities were selected by a standard random route procedure (see technical report)

The city of Almaty is one of the largest cities in the Republic of Kazakhstan and has a population of about 2.2 million people (at the end of 2022), about 2.5 million more people live in the urban agglomeration. Almaty is also the largest cultural, industrial and commercial center of the Almaty region. All this contributes to a large flow of people who both work in the city and come from the region to work. In connection with the above, several problems arise:· Weak development of public transport. The city's road system is relatively undeveloped, with about 165 bus/trolleybus routes. The metro is poorly developed and has only 1 branch. At the same time, a large number of private cars are constantly moving in the city. There are no electric trains or LRT for the suburbs.
