Orozai

Orozai (form. Ruzayevka, Russ. Орозай, Finn. Orossai) is a Uralican city, situated on Highway UH-27 in Mordoviya, 25 km southwest of Saransk. Originally founded as "Uruzayevka" in 1631, it is the Moksha variant of this name from which the name of the city comes.

Orozai is seen as some as a bedroom community for the aforementioned Saransk, however it does also have its own industrial sector, with heavy machinery, textiles, glass, food production (especially dairy), and the manufacturing of vacuum cleaners being decently-sized within Orozai. It is also a large retail source of construction materials such as lumber, plywood, hardi-plank, and most other essentials.

Culture
As is the same with nearby Saransk, a large number of Mordvinic people gravitated towards the city for work, with the farm work now being done by smaller numbers of people. Orozai has a higher proportion of fully Russian people, though, at around 30% of the population. There are also more Finns in Orozai, proportionally speaking, and there also exists a small population of Tatars in one of the western suburbs.
