Advantages of Big Cities
Do you live in a big city? It is said that living in big cities is expensive
because of the high living cost. There are also pollution and traffic
problems that make living in big cities unpleasant. However, many people
enjoy living in big cities because they offer countless options for
entertainment.
Many big cities already have good public transportation systems, which make
it easy for the citizens to go anywhere around the city. This also reduces
and helps overcome the problem of traffic jams that often occur at peak
times. With the convenience of public transportation, the citizens do not
have to drive everywhere and can save money as they do not have to pay for
parking charges.
Staying healthy is everybody’s concern and in big cities you can find the
best possible medical care for any diseases. Moreover, compared to rural
areas, access to medical treatment is easier because there are always medical
centers that open 24 hours in many parts of the city so you can get medical
help anytime, as soon as you need it. Reaching hospitals is also easier as
public transport is usually available 24 hours a day.
There is a saying that big cities never sleep. This is true for some cities
in which the nightlife begins just when people in other cities are ready to
go to bed. Big cities like New York, Madrid, London and Paris have vibrant
nightlife. People can still find entertainment, dine out or go shopping
anytime:
City dwellers are usually more diverse and there are many communities that
organize social events or parties, which provide interesting opportunities
for social interactions. This interaction allows you to learn about other
cultures and share interests with people from different backgrounds, which
makes you more open minded and able to understand individuals. On the other
hand, the social networking helps you to broaden not only personal but also
professional relationships.
