The most accurate answer to why the majority of Russians live in western Russia, rather than eastern Russia, is:
**Western Russia has a more pleasant climate than eastern Russia.**
Western Russia, which includes cities like Moscow and St. Petersburg, generally has a milder climate that is more conducive to agriculture and human settlement compared to parts of eastern Russia, which can be characterized by harsher climatic conditions. While resources and geography do play a role, the climate is a significant factor influencing population distribution.
