Living in a small town vs a big city Choosing a place to live is an important decision in everyone`s life In fact, the conditions of the place one lives have direct effects on his or her life Some people prefer to live in a big city Others would rather live in a small town There are advantages and disadvantages about both group`s opinion that in this essay I am going to discuss them First, let us elaborate the opinion of the group who prefer to live in a big city These people assert that there are a lot of facilities in a bog city that make life easier and more comfortable Fore example, there are more social amenities and public services; such as public transportation, public hygienic services, etc Another thing is educational and working opportunities that that are undoubtedly more various in a large city Also, there are a lot of facilities of entertainment and cultural activities such as cinemas, theatres, concerts, etc that is more found in such cities Furthermore, you can find more expert doctors and hospitals in a large city that is so considerable particularly in case a disease occurs As a result this group prefers to live in a big city In contrast, there are people who would rather exist in a small town These people point out that although there are a lot of facilities in big cities, you face so many problems in such cities, too For instance, as these kinds of cities are so crowded, heavy traffic is a ubiquitous phenomenon in them which makes life so stressful This may also lead to air pollution So people in big cities are threatened both mentally and physically Moreover, the crime rate is much higher in big cities, and also life is too expensive in cities like that But, in a small town you can have a calm and healthy life without any stress far from the crowd of the city You can breathe natural air without any pollution and happily beside the nature Personally, I would rather live in a big city than a small town Although some of the second group`s opinions, mentioned above, seems to be right, but I believe that living in a small town is so boring and monotonous Also, as stated above, educational opportunities are limited in such cities, and finally there are not many chances for finding a desirable job that is a serious problem itself That`s why I find a big city a more comfortable and desirable place to live
