City life vs. Village life

As you know there are social, economical aspect among others which define your life style; one of them is the place where you live; it has a huge influence in your life style, for example it is really different to live in a city or in a village. There are a lot of aspects that determine the way you can see life in each one of them, such as size, pollution and environment because they are totally different in a city or in a village.

Size is an important aspect that determines life in a city or in a village. In a village there are fewer pressures because you can arrive fast and maybe walking to the place that you want because most of places are close, so you do not have to use a car all the time. However, in a village because of the small size; there are not many places you can go, so it can be a little bit boring. On the contrary, a city is a very big place, so most of places are far away; thus, your life can be very stressful, because you have to use different manners of transportation, so it makes your life expensive and sedentary because you do not have time to walk. Although, there is a huge variety of entertainment places where you can have fun.

Another characteristic that can you take into consideration is pollution, a certain aspect that differentiate between living in a village or in a city. In a village there is less pollution because there are not a lot of factories and cars, also there are more green areas, so the air is purer; however, the lack of factories causes a lack of job opportunities. On the other hand, in a city there is more pollution than in a village because there are many factories, so they produce a lot of smog, and as I mentioned before people cannot go to their destination by walking so the use of transportation increases pollution; on the contrary, people do not have the same trouble for getting a job because there are many job´s opportunities.

            Finally, an important aspect that determines a lifestyle in a village or in a city is the social environment.  In a small place most of people know each other, so you know how people are, this some times can be good because you can expect; although, there are people who say “Small village, big hell” because as people believe they know you, they criticize you; however, it is a quiet and safe place for living because there is not much money, so there is not much insecurity. In a different way, in a city your lifestyle is not so quiet, because there are a lot of people and you do not know how they are, also most of them have money for it, there is a lot of insecurity insecurity; nevertheless, life in a city can be more interesting because there are many places where you can get more facilities to become a successful person and to get entertainment.

            As we have seen these aspects show us the differences between life in a village and in a city and ach one of them has its own advantages and disadvantages which determine your lifestyle and also the way you are. In my personal opinion I like living in a village because my life is kind of quiet; however, as I realized life in a city is more exciting because there are more activities that you can do; besides, life is easier than in a village because there is more technology and opportunities for studying and working.
