The article is devoted to the analysis of transformations in the careers and daily lives of three successful female scientists, whose destinies were tied to science cities in the 1950—1960s. Among them are physicist E. N. Kladnitskaya (Dubna), mathematicians L. V. Keldysh (Zhukovsky) and P. Ya. Kochina (Novosibirsk Akademgorodok). The study, which combined the anthropology of academic life, the history of women’s everyday life and urban anthropology, was carried out using materials from personal sources, publications in periodicals and personal archives of the authors. The authors proved that the new Soviet science cities made it possible to create a unique sociocultural urban environment in which female scientists were able to reveal their scientific potential, realize their professional calling, and self-realization in family life. However, in the new Soviet science cities, no special preferences were created specifically for women at the level of everyday practices.
