What are more westernised Muslim republics in Russia?

Question by leila: What are some of the more westernised republics in Russia with Muslim populations?
What areas in Russia with high muslim populations are more westernised? By that I mean where people might speak English and there would be more educated people. Also, where islam is not taken to an extreme? Where would be good places to travel or find work?

If you want the most developed muslim city, that would be Kazan. It is industrialized and everything but I am not sure how westernized it is, I kind of doubt that.

    Here it is very different things western and muslims.As muslum it is all right but americans…In Moscow there is job and money but you will stay namely muslim, in regions there is not job for money and you will be americans. As tourist with money is so so the rest in regions in summer.

    Hmm… most suited to you is England and Wales (Yes, this is not Russia, but not all at once): 1) a very large Muslim population, 2) about three quarters of the population can speak English (and about the same can read and write), 3) major pogroms of non-Muslim is rare (the last was in 2011), 4) with work is bad, but high benefits for the unemployed.

    Now, seriously: Outside of St. Petersburg you are not wanted. If you are interested in working: http://spb.hh.ru/?nocookies or http://www.monsterrussia.ru/
