Some people prefer living in a small town. Others prefer to live in a big city. Which place would you prefer to live in?

It is a personal preference whether to live in a big city or a small town.  Even though I have grown up in a small town, which is, undoubtedly, way sounder and calmer than the cities, I would prefer to live in a big city, and here is why.

Firstly, big cities are more eclectic than the small ones where people are usually too narrow-minded and biased. The cities give the possibility to meet diverse people and to become more tolerant. In big cities you encounter a variety of cultures and mindsets.

Secondly, there are more opportunities for you to grow in the cities and a mammoth list of activities and hobbies to chose from and take up. It is ordinary for the big cities to have an ample number of entertaining and recreational activities some of which you are unlikely to find in the small towns. 

Furthermore, you will be more prosperous because of all the different opportunities to develop in one or many areas that you are interested in and like.

Last but not least, you can actually feel the hustle and bustle, and the cities’ distinct energy.   As if the city itself is alive. There is always something happening and you will never be bored.  Big cities are constantly changing and you never know what surprise they might throw at you. Moreover, with this uncertainty of what is coming next they challenge you so you may grow.  In the long run you get to know and understand yourself better all thanks to these eternal changes.

In conclusion, whether you would like to live in a small town or a big city depends on your personal preferences. To my mind, living in a big city is better because there are more than enough possibilities for you to grow not only as a person but also in your professional life, there is always something new and exciting happening there and you can find many different friends.
