Living in the City

Living in a city has both advantages and disadvantages. On the plus side, it is often easier to find work, and there is usually a choice of public transport, so you don't need to own a car. Also, there are a lot of interesting things to do and to see. For example, you can eat in good restaurants, visit museums, and go to the theatre and to concerts. What is more, when you want to relax, you can usually find a park wh ere can feed the ducks or just sit on a park bench and read a book.

However, for every plus there is a minus. For one thing, you might have a job, but unless it is very well - paid, you will not be able to afford many of the things that there are to do, because living in a city is often very expensive. It is difficult to find good cheap accom­modation. What is more, public transport is sometimes crowded and dirty, particularly in the rush hour, and even the parks can become very crowded. Last of all, despite all the crowds, it is still possible to feel very lonely in a city.
