Ochyor

Ochyor (Russ. Очёр, Finn. Otiuro) is a small Uralican city in Permski Rayon. It is known as an important junction city even though the only highway it actually sits directly on is Highway UH-14A. The actual junctions with Highway 14 are actually to the southeast at Malakhovo Junction, and to the south at Beloborodovo Junction. Still, its location makes it a prime stopover destination for travellers who go between Perm' and Votka or Izhevsk.

The largest economic sector in Ochyor, though, is actually food production, with dairy, bread, egg products, a processed cheese factory, and a few blackberry plots existing in the city. There is also scheduled to be a donut factory being built in the area.

Machine-building, furniture-making, iron-mining and ferrous metallurgy, pharmaceutical production, and medical supplies production are also fairly large-scale. Surprisingly, there isn't much in the way of transportation production in the city, with small-scale operations existing in the nearby town of Pavlovsky and the nearby district-municipality of Semyonovo.

Culture
Ochyor is an interesting mix ethnically-speaking. Russians are of course the most prevalent ethnicity, but Finns, Estonians, Udmurts, Bashkirs, and Komi all reside in the city in relatively large numbers as well. The linguistic mix is even broader, since there are Komi speaking both Komi and Permyak, as well as a great many English-speakers, several Tatar-speakers, and speakers of Kven Finnish.

The city has a reputation as one of the prime fishing spots in Permski Rayon, due to the local pond being downstream from several fish-spawning grounds. There is also the Stroganov Historical Museum of Ochyor, which chronicles both the history of the city, and the life and times of Russian nobleman Pavel A. Stroganov, who was connected with the actual naming of the city.
