.I like living in the countryside because of some reasons. Environmentally speaking, it is a peaceful place. The air is fresh. The space is quiet. We can enjoy healthy natural conditions without
worrying much about environmental pollution.

As for social security, the countryside is a safer place than a city. While urban security situation is always complicated with all kinds of crimes, rural areas are much more secure because most of countrymen are friendly and ready to help one another.

Moreover, rural life is also easier that in cities. People in cities are easy to get stressed because of pollution, job pressures, competitions, etc ... On the contrary, those bad things
are very rare in the countryside. To sum up, except income matters, the countryside is a better residence than cities

In my opinion, life in the city as well as in the countryside has its own benefits. Personally, I prefer living in the countryside.
In the first place, life in the the countryside is much more peaceful in the way that it gives people a chance to relax and feel at ease.
Secondly, the air is so fresh and pure in the countryside. Besides, there are so many beautiful sceneries there such as woods, mountains, rivers, ponds and lakes... For that reason, many people choose the countryside as their refreshment site after tiring days at work. Moreover, rural people are very friendly and hospitable. You are always welcome to their place. They make a living by farming and breeding cattle and poultry. The food there is always fresh and delicious.
Lastly, life in the conutryside is very peaceful and good for our heath.
If someone asks where I would rather live, my definite answer is the peaceful and happy countryide.

I don't think music and art should be compulsory subjects at school in Viet Nam because it's just a main subject and it's not important for my future.
