Where people live is an extremely important aspect of their lives. Some prefer the hustle and bustle of the city whereas many prefer the quiet life of a small town. I, for one, would much prefer to live in the city rather than the small town due to many essential features that cities have and towns do not. Firstly, cities in my country have all the modern facilities that are needed to get along in this world. The health care systems in cities in my country are excellent but are absent in small towns. The city is the center for trade and thus, excellent shopping options are available in the city but are absent in towns where one has extremely limited options. Lastly, communications in the city are excellent. Internet, e-mail, international phone calls are available everywhere but in towns in my country, people have yet to hear of Internet and e-mail. Secondly, the city has more energy than the town. I get galvanized into action by the bustle I see everywhere. Everyone seems to be busy and this inspires me to work even harder to achieve my goals. The immense industry that cities spawn are testament to the fact that they are economic hubs of  the country. Lastly, job and study opportunities are available in cities to a much larger extent than in towns. All the ‘wanted’ ads in national newspapers in my country seem to originate in the city. All the best colleges and universities in the country are in the cities. If one, like me, really wants to make his future bright, then there is no alternative to studying or working in the city. Many people support living in towns due to the clean environment and the idyllic life. However, I feel that the idyllic life is not for me. I need to get out, to experience and to compete in order to realize my dreams. People also feel that cities are too polluted but in recent times we have seen that tough regulations have made the city much cleaner and so, this argument too can be thrown out of the window. Thus, I hope that I have been able to convince you that the city is a better place to live in from my point of view. Due to all the above reasons, I would like to recommend to all progressive individuals like me that they live in the city and take advantage of all that the city has to offer.
