A significant place in the article is also devoted to such an important function of the Russian language for a large city with a large number of migrants as adaptation. Data on the levels of education are also involved: grades 1–4, 5–9, 10–11.

To do this, a number of linguo-demographic parameters were considered: the size of the ethnic group, the number of those who indicated the possession and nonknowledge of the Russian language, in absolute numbers and in percentages. The author also briefly considers the main trends in educational policy, and the place that the preservation of languages and cultures with a simultaneous vector to strengthen the unity of the Russian nation as a supranational, supracultural entity based on the Russian base such a task plays among them.
