Rural life is a pipe dream for many city people today. To what extend do you agree or disagree wit the above statement.
For many people, living in a city bores to them. So they tend to desire to inhabit in a secluded area with fresh air and picturesque views.
Firstly, the reasons for who don’t want to live in such a polluted city are a lot. The number of workload is so much. They might work overtime to make their livings or every morning the congestion of the traffic also make them feel tired. Especially, the criminal situation has gone up considerably.
Secondly, living in a countryside also has its own disadvantages. For instance, sometime, the electricity supply might fail. If you were bited a snake whose poison is very dangerous just only treated by some hospitals in cities, you might died after few minutes. It’s likely that the worst thing about the countryside is the educational conditions. In here, well-qualified teachers might not as more as ones in the city. The modern facilities tend to be non-existent.
In conclusion, neither living in the city nor the countryside is better than the other. The enjoyment depends on people and their favorites. We can’t put in comparison with them.
