Traffic and housing problems in major cities could be solved by

moving large companies and factories and their employees to the
countryside. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this
opinion?
ANSWER:

One widely heard argument these days is that relocating urban large-scale firms,
factories, and their employees to rural regions might be a solution to traffic and
housing difficulties. From my perspective, I totally disagree with this view on
account of the reasoning presented below.

To begin with, by relocating large enterprises to the countryside, traffic congestion

would be alleviated. Many enterprises with thousands of employees are located in
major cities, resulting in significant traffic bottlenecks, particularly during peak
hours. Additionally, many of those employees have children who must be driven to
school in the morning and home late in the afternoon, making traffic congestion a
major nuisance for both the government and people. Thus, relocating large
corporations and their employees to rural areas would help alleviate the terrible
problem of urban traffic congestion.

In addition, housing concerns would become far less problematic. Undoubtedly,

huge enterprises in cities draw a large number of immigrants from the countryside
on a yearly basis. They rush to cities in the hope that working as manufacturing
workers will improve their circumstances. The more people there are, the higher
the demand for housing, and housing gets increasingly costly as a result.
Consequently, if large companies were relocated to rural regions, urban housing
would no longer be a serious issue since immigration would be greatly decreased.

In conclusion, I hold a strong belief that heavy traffic and a lack of housing in city
centers will undoubtedly improve if employees are relocated to rural areas to work
and live.
