Mi city Antofagasta is a city which is located in the North of the Chile. This city is not a big city, its population is around 400.000 people, however is the most important city in the country. This is due to has most of the chilean's copper. For that reason, several multinational companies are working there. For example: BHP Billiton, Antofagasta Minerals, Barrick Gold. Something very interesting about Antofagasta is the GNP (Gross National Product) is as higher as England and the highest in Chile. For that reason, Antofagasta is known as the "New Dubai". But this "New Dubay" has a big problem, whereas people who work in the minning's industry live quite good, people who don´t work in that industry have problems, because the city is really expensive and their salarias are not as higher as minning's salaries. Therefore there is a big gap between those classes of people. Another problem that Antofagasta has, it is how spend free time. How it is a city in the middle of nothing, it's quite difficult travel to other cities. So people have to spend their money inside of the city. However the city doesn't have many things to do; it just has one mall, two cinemas, and one theater which bararly has a play. So when someone walks it's quite easy see very expensive cars, or huge houses or aparment which has their own lake. The last problem that is getting worse is ilegal imigration. How it is a city that has many job offers, people from Peru, Bolivia, Ecuador and Colombia have been comming to Antofagasta, even more, around 15% of the population are not chilean and about that percentage no everyone came to chile in a legal way, so those ilegal people can´t work and most of them start working as a drug dealer or prostitute.
