✯What is City
A city is a large human settlement.It can be defined as a permanent and densely settled place with administratively defined boundaries whose members work primarily on non-agricultural tasks. Cities generally have extensive systems for housing, transportation, sanitation, utilities, land use, and communication.
✯ADVANTAGES OF CITY LIFE
☆Convenience
The convenience of city life is another point in its favor. You have everything within easy access via public transportation, a short drive, or even walking distance. You won’t need to drive for long stretches in order to get to work, go shopping, or see a show.
☆Public Transportation
Public transportation is a great benefit for those living in and around the city. Trains, buses, and subways are all efficient and cost effective methods of getting to and from your home and other destinations. The costs are relatively low for these services and the amount of money you may save from not having car-related expenditures will make city living more affordable. If public transit isn’t your cup of tea, most cities are bike friendly! More and more cities are now adding bike-share programs as an eco-friendly option for transportation.
☆Shopping
Just like dining, shopping in the city presents a range of options. You’ll find the classic, larger brand stores to smaller, artisan craft shops all within a relatively small radius. You can get your groceries at your favorite big box store or shop small at a neighborhood market offering locally grown produce and other goods. Clothing options can be found at stores like Target or perhaps a small thrift store specializing in handmade, bespoke fashion.
☆Opportunities/Careers
Finally, an excellent perk of living in the city is the sheer amount of education, career, and volunteer opportunities available. Whether you’re trying to earn a bachelor’s degree, graduate degree, seeking full-time employment in your field, or just looking for somewhere to lend a helping hand in your free time – city life presents a chance to learn, grow, develop, and serve in whatever manner you wish.
✯DISADVANTAGES OF CITY LIFE
☆Cost-of-Living
The cost-of-living is typically higher in big cities, and it can cost you an arm and a leg for a small apartment in a decent area of the city. However, it is possible to find a cheaper place to live (I did twice), but typically it is in the not so great part of the city.
☆People
Although, the diversity is a good thing, the amount of people can be a bit over-whelming if you are not accustom to it. There will always be crowds and always be people around. Some people enjoy this, while others prefer the peace and quiet of a small town.
☆Traffic
Traffic can be a nightmare in the big city. It can get so bad that it can turn you in to an evil person. If you hate driving in traffic, than the big city life is not for you.
☆Pollution
Pollution is a sad reality for big city life and one of the biggest disadvantages. It would always sadden me when I would drive into the city for work in the morning in the summer time and see huge cloud of smog hovering over the downtown skyline.
✯What is Village
A village is a clustered human settlement or community, larger than a hamlet but smaller than a town (although the word is often used to describe both hamlets and smaller towns), with a population typically ranging from a few hundred to a few thousand.
✯ADVANTAGES OF VILLAGE
☆Community atmosphere
Lifestyle Villages are full of like-minded, similar aged people who often share the same interests or hobbies. The activities and events that take place within village enable friendships and informal care networks to develop. Neighbours look out for each other and help each other out. If you plan on travelling during your retirement, its nice to know that someone will collect your mail or water your plants.
☆Low maintenance living
Maintaining a large family home is constant work which becomes even more demanding as we get older. Homes within Lifestyle Villages are more low maintenance and have been designed with seniors in mind.
✯DISADVANTAGES OF VILLAGE
☆Education
Most of the rural areas do not have good educational facilities. They either lack the schools, colleges and universities or the quality of education imparted is not at par with the market demands. Institutions for higher education such as colleges and universities are usually missing.
☆Job Opportunities
Countryside or village is not the place if you are looking for a high end job. There is usually lack of employment in villages. Most of the people are engaged in their own work which is related to farming or small manufacturing or processing units.
