The history of workers everyday life during industrialization when old vital foundations changed into new ones is of great interest when studying social history of the Central Volga area. Studying life of workers for industrial enterprises in large cities of the Middle Volga Region allows to understand the development of the Soviet society better during such a difficult period in general. At the same time the history of workers life in this region has a number of features in comparison with industrial centers of the country. This paper considers housing as the most painful question of urbanization in the Central Volga area in the 1930th. Its analysis is impossible without studying history of urban transportation development, sanitary and hygienic service of the population, improvement of the cities. At the same time studying history of life shows all problems and difficulties of working class development and the country in 2030 of the XX century in general. This work is devoted to these interconnected problems.
