The education possibilities are huge in big cities. When it comes to pursuing higher education the inhabitants of the small town move to big cities as the quality of education is always better in big cities.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>Employment chances<\/b><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With more population there are more corporate companies, industries, institutes, entertainment sectors that make more room for employment. People from small cities move to big cities in order to find the best possibilities for employment and business.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>Transport system<\/b><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In big cities there is usually a well-established transportation system. Local transport is more advanced as more people use it. On the other hand, if you live in a small town you can easily ride a bike or book a taxi due to less distance which is also not very costly in small towns. A taxi service like Uber is less costly in small cities as compared to the big cities.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you live in a big city you need more time commuting from work to home.

People living in small towns have great benefits in this department.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>Entertainment<\/b><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Big cities attract more business and entertainment industries. There are comparatively more cinema houses, theaters, museums, art councils, shopping malls\u00a0 and exhibitions in big cities than in small towns. The competition is also comparatively high in big cities as there are huge numbers of sources.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><b>Environment and Pollution<\/b><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In today&#8217;s world when global warming is increasing one of the major things that needs to be considered when it comes to living in a small town or big city is the environment. In big cities due to the huge number of traffic and industries the pollution level is higher in comparison with small towns.\u00a0 Living in a small town is better if you want clean air free of pollution.
