A city is consider as a large important town. Usually, a city is a prosperous town and a place of heavy population to dwell in. Cities generally have advanced systems for sanitation, utilities, land usage, housing, and transportation. The concentration of development greatly facilitates interaction between people and businesses, benefiting both parties in the process. A big city or metropolis usually has associated suburbs and exurbs. Such cities are usually associated with metropolitan areas and urban sprawl, creating numerous business commuters traveling to urban centers of employment. Once a city sprawls far enough to reach another city, this region can be deemed a conurbation or megalopolis.
City is a crowded place to live in. Many people pursue their gold and glory here. But nowadays people are more prefer to live in countryside compare to city. Why is that so? As we all know, city are overcrowded and flooded with people. The traffic congestion is a irritating problem that keep daunting all the city residents. Besides that, the pollution is getting serious. The smoke and the open combustion contribute to the air pollution. Waste products, sewage and other garbage are being thrown to the river and cause flash flood. City residents are always emotional due to the sound pollution as well. In conjunction with that, the crime rate in city are higher and the safety of the city residents are always on risk.
