U selu živi oko 500 ljudi, a između 1920. i 1930. bilo je usputna postaja čuvarima sobova koji su na tamošnje termalne izvore dolazili napojiti svoja stada.

No sovjetska vlada imala je za cilj tamo trajno naseliti nomade jer su smatrali kako ih je teško kontrolirati i kako su tehnološki i kulturno zaostali. I tako je i bilo.

Dnevni problemi s kojima se suočavaju su smrzavanje tinte u kemijskim olovkama, smrznute naočale na očima, kao i brzo pražnjenje baterija. Lokalci tvrde kako automobile ostavljaju upaljenima čitavog dana jer strahuju da ih neće moći ponovno upaliti. Tu je i problem s mobitelima. Naime, i da postoji mreža, mobiteli ne bi mogli raditi u tako hladnim uvjetima. Još jedan problem mještana su pokapanja ljudskih tijela, što može potrajati i do tri dana jer se zemlja mora odmrznuti kako bi ju mogli kopati.

U njihovoj okolici ništa ne raste, stoga se hrane mesom sobova i konja. U selu ima samo jedna trgovina koja mještanima pruža osnovne potrepštime, a mještani rade kao uzgajivači sobova, lovci ili ribari.

Liječnici tvrde kako stanovnici ne pate od pothanjenosti jer mlijeko njihovih životinja sadrži puno hranjivih tvari.
