Which is better, city living or country living? [TOEFL practice]

Personally, I find living in the city much more appealing than living on in the countryside. I am able to say this with much conviction because I expierence experience both ways of living every week as my parents are seperated and one of them lives in the city while the other lives in a more rural area.
Most importantly, city life is easier because you don’t have to drive hours to get to the supermarket, school, a gas station and so on. In other words, everything is close by, which surely isn’t the case when living on in the countryside.
Secondly, it doesn’t get as lonely in the city, this being a big problem for me when I’m spending time on in the countryside. Friends live far away and often don’t feel like making the trip or you have to spend more time traveling to and returning from an event than the event itself actually takes. A lot of the time people will decide to just stay home, missing out on fun opportunities.
Another agrument in favor of the city is that it has everything the country has and more. Some people will argue that there is no green in the city, but this is not correct, every city has at least some parks or even a city forest.
And lastly, city’s are full of life and give you energy and inspiration to live your own life.
In the city, you will run into people on the streets that have the same dreams you do, you will discover new places every day and you can get so much more done in one single day than you would in a rural area.
In conclusion, the city is the place to be! It isn’t boring and lonely like the countryside, however, it is extremely exciting and that is why I believe the city beats the country every time!
