There is a big number of people wish to live in big cities.

Over the past few years, it seem that lots of people are attracted by living in a big
cites. Some people think it is like stepping into a world full of opportunities, but it
also comes with its challanges. (This trend may create certain benefits but there
will also be some drawbacks.) The following essay will analyze both pros and cons
of this situation.

One of the main advantages is that big cities are full of job opportunities. There are
many different types of job, which make it easier for people to find work and build
their careers. For example, people living in big cities may find it much easier to
get a well-paid job than those who live in rural area. Moreover, big cities are like a
mixture of cultures. People from all over the world come together bringing their
languages, traditions, and delicious foods. To illustrate, Ha Noi is known as a
wonderful city where different cultures mix and create a vibrant atmosphere.

However, there are some negative sides of living in big cities. First, it can be quite
expensive, with high prices for houses and transportation. This can make life tough
for people trying to build careers there. Additionally, cities can be crowded, noisy
and not very clean. To illustrate, traffic jams and pollution can make people feel
stressed and not so healthy.

In conclusion, living in big cities is both positive and negative. It is about finding
the right balance for their own life. Each person could consider their priority to
make a right decision whether to live in big cities or not.
