I have a mongolian friend, he said it was a choice between a dystopian city or the vast empty nature. I guess if you like nature it could be good but the density is sooooo low there are places where you wont see civilization for hundreds of kilometers.
The winters are super hardcore though. I forget numbers, but it gets really really cold, worse than the upper midwest of the US and central canada in temperature, although I think they get less snow than many of us.
Yeah i live in sweden and every time i complain about the weather he just shows me ulaanbaatar and its either like -35c during winter or +35c during summer
Yeah sweden is really mild cause of the gulf stream so even tho i live arround latitude 58(kodiak for reference, or kuujjuaq is a canadian example i found) winters usually dont drop below minus 15-20C and summers at best go up to 30C.

How extreme is it for you? Because it gets -30°C in the winter here, and 30°C in the summer here, in my part of Canada.

Want to switch? We get blizzards in april sometimes. Also, tons of tornadoes.
I watched a heartwarming short of a guy getting stopped by the police in Mongolia for using a wind sail powered horizontal bike thingy.
2 locals also showed up on a moped

“It’s nice to see all 5 people in Mongolia meet up to see how OP’s bike works”
Oulan-Bator looks like your first SimCity game when you had 10yo and just put random coal plant there and there.
Kinda like Shadowrun.
