With a population of just 44,089, Lubny is a small industrial outpost in central Ukraine, far from the glitz of Kyiv. The city was founded in the 11th century and has a long history of partisan resistance, but today it's known more for its factories churning out everything from bread to ice cream. While the local culture and museums offer some diversions, the persistent bureaucratic headaches make Lubny a tough sell for all but the most committed expats.
