Advantages and disadvantages of living in a city and in the countryside

A lot of people decide to move to the countryside nowadays. However, there are still many people who prefer stay in the town and say that they couldn't live anywhere else. So which place is better to live? Let's think about both of them. I would like to start with the advantages and disadvantages of the big city life. Living in such a big city has a lot of advantages. There is a big offer how to spend free time. There are a lot of theatres, concerts and other ways of entertainment. There is always a lot to do and visit! There are a lot of possibilities of shopping. In various shopping centres and galleries you can buy whatever you want. What is more, there are a lot of working places in a city. Many big international companies have their locations in the cities, so it is much easier to find a job in a big city. Moreover, the public transport is developed quite well, so the commuting to work isn't a problem. On the other hand, there are some disadvantages of living in a big city. Cities are very crowded. Everywhere there are crowds: on the pavements and in the buses. What is more, the traffic is heavy and city's car parks are always very full. Sometimes it is very difficult to get from a given place to another. It may take hours! Moreover, the other disadvantage is the safety in a city, but actually the lack of safety. There is a big crime rates in cities. So you have to be very careful at nights when you leave your home.

I think that in the country the problem of crime isn't so big. There aren't so many people and they usually know each other well. The possibility of robbery or other crime is relatively lower. Life in the countryside is more peaceful and the life is also slower. What is more, it is less stressful. There isn't any time pressure and the traffic conditions are better. A lot of places you may reach on foot. The city offers a lot: there are huge buildings, skyscrapers or some historic monuments. On the other hand, in the countryside there are a lot of breathtaking sceneries, space and other amazing places such as forests, lakes or mountains. Moreover, people in the countryside are quite different than people living in the city: they are relaxed, friendly and family-oriented. People in the city are like ants. They are always in hurry, busy and out of time. In the country people enjoy lives and take pleasure in their daily activities. As a disadvantage of living in the countryside we may consider the commuting problems. People who stay in the countryside often have to work in the nearest cities, so it may take a lot of time to get to it. However, the living costs in the country are much lower, the variety of products in shops is smaller. To sum up I would like to say that both countryside and city have some advantages and disadvantages. Both city and country may be a good place to live. However I will stay in the city till I retire. Then I would like to move to the country to have a rest. I think that everyone of us will take into consideration all aspects before he decides to move to the country

Have you ever thought about the advantages and disadvanteges of living in cities? It may seem, at first, that living in cities has only good sides, but further consideration shows that it also has negative sides. One point in favour of living in cities is that you don't have to go for shopping by car or bus- you have enormous department store nearby your house and you can do the shopping very quickly. What is more, in bigger cities are many places in which you can meet with yours friends, which you can also visit,

Advantages and disadvantages of living in a big city or a small town Living in a big city with no doubt gives you much more opportunities for development. But what do you think? Do we need to leave our calmness away, in order to take up a successful career, which tears us out? At one side it is pretty good to give your children the opportunities they deserve. It is a lot much easier to succeed if you live in a big city. There are suitable studying centers, institutions and more work places after graduating. Living in a big city with a large population you get used to making contacts and in this way you become more socialized. At teenagers view it is clear that in a city is quite much funny than in a small town or village. There are discoes, cinemas, night clubs, sport centers and so on... Disadvantages, however, are as much as the advantages. First of all it is very noisy, everybody is in a rush, hurrying about somewhere. The streets are full of roaring cars, which are nowadays more than people. We must not forget also about the plains over our heads. Everyday traffic jams. Are not you fed up with this? And to sum up the crimes are more in the city than n the small town. At the other hand living in a small town or village gives you a big chance to relax, even at your work place. Whatever we talk when we heard the word village we imagine about stillness, clearness, flowers and nice animals. With some words an idyllic place with nice inhabitants. The air is full of oxygen But it is not a secret that in some small towns the bus service is infrequent and sometimes miss at all. In this way the contact with the world is nearly interrupted, which is one of the most important things nowadays. Its difficult for some inhabitants to reach the amenities they need if they have not a car. And I think it is not so pleasant to meet one and the same people every day on the street. The fact that the whole village is like an extended family makes the situation unbearable. Isnt it unpleasant to know that your neighbours have a free access in your home? Because everybody has secrets, which we dont want to be given away. Do we need to hide them in our own home, in order not to be seen?To sum up small towns and villages are better places for living for the old people. It is safer, with clear air and perfect suits on their points of view. But if you are young ambitious and full of energy careerist the big city is your place.

Some people say that city center is the best place to live. One has an easy access to all the amenities of life. Additionally, city centers are the places where all the business, educational, official and trade activity centers are located. The commuting time is nothing as compared to those living in the suburbs. There are, however, some big disadvantages of living in the city center as well. Following lines would give you a great comparison in this regard. Advantages The biggest advantage of living in a city-center is the easy access to all the business, trade and educational offices. City-centers are planned in such a manner that they become the hub of everything related to commercial, official or educational fields. Most universities and colleges are located in the city-center and students from suburbs have to commute long distances to reach their alma maters. Similarly, professionals have to take public or private transport to reach the city-center. Monthly fares of public transports, despite all the discounts, are quite expensive these days. On the contrary, people living in the city-center do not have to incur any transportation costs. In most cases, all the famous buildings, business centers and universities are located within a walking distance. There are no expenditures in transportation costs and time wasted in travelling. Additionally, one can save money on dining costs as one can simply head back to home to eat during lunch breaks. People from the suburbs are unfortunate in this regard. They have to eat lunch from the push carts or restaurants and this entails some big spending, even if the rates are affordable. Monthly expenditures on food bills are enough to cause a big dent in your monthly budget. Disadvantages There are also many disadvantages of living in a city-center. First of all, there is no sense of privacy as the city centre remains active till late night. Secondly, the house rents are sky high in

the city-center. Everyone wants to live there and homeowners take full advantage of this phenomenon. Another disadvantage of living in a city-center is the lack of suburban activities and neighbourhood attitude that is prevalent in the suburbs. There are hardly any parks and open spaces where one can breathe fresh air. In most cases, the environment is polluted because of thousands of cars that throng the roads and alleys. Similarly, the proportion of trees and shrubs is far less than a typical suburb that is usually green and pollution free. The sense of community is also lacking in the city-center as people remain busy in their own affairs and do not pay any attention to their neighbours and friends. Another down point of living in the city center is the higher prices of commodities. As compared to suburbs, that are usually located close to farmer markets; city centers are cramped places with high property rents. Shops often pass on that high price to their customers.

Advantages and disadvantages of living in a big city Big citys are full of fast cars, huge biuldings and overcrowded streets. Living in a big city is good because all the shops are near you, but in a city there are more stealing than in a country and you may have some noisy neighbors.

Firstly, in a city there are lots of shops where you can buy everything you need. There are bigger grocery stores with bigger variety of products than in the countryside. Also there are many drapers. People who live in the countryside have to drive to the city when they want to buy clothes, but people who live in the city can buy clothes whenever they want. Secondly, in a city may happen that some very noisy people move next to you. They could disturb you and you may have to call to the police very often. It is very usual that people who live in a city can not get enough sleep, because their neighbors listens too loud music.

Thirdly, in a city there is more stealing than in a country. People have to buy different kind of locks to protect their property. Also then you walk along the street you have to be very open-eyed, because of the pickpockets. They can steel your wallet and you do not notice anything.

Living in a big city is fun, but sometimes it brings along some difficultys. Deal your problems and you will begin to enjoy living in a city as much as living in a country.
