Advantages and disvantages of the city and the country.
Living in a city has a lot of advantages. There is a big offer how to spend free time (theatres, concerts and other ways of entertainment). There is always a lot to do and visit there. What is more, there are a lot of working places in a city. Many big international companies have their locations in the cities, so it is much easier to find a job. Moreover, the public transport is developed quite well, so the commuting to work isn't a problem. On the other hand, there are some disadvantages of living in a city. Cities are very crowded. What is more, the traffic is heavy and city's car parks are always very full. Moreover, the other disadvantage is the safety in a city, but actually the lack of safety. There is a big crime rates in cities. So you have to be very careful at nights when you leave your home.
I think that in the country the problem of crime isn't so big. There aren't so many people and they usually know each other well. The possibility of robbery or other crime is relatively lower. Life in the countryside is more peaceful. There isn't any time pressure and the traffic conditions are better. A lot of places you may reach on foot. In the countryside there are a lot of breathtaking sceneries, space and other amazing places such as forests, lakes or mountains. As a disadvantage of living in the countryside we may consider the commuting problems. People who stay in the countryside often have to work in the nearest cities, so it may take a lot of time to get to it. However, the living costs in the country are much lower, the variety of products in shops is smaller.
