There is an argument that people who live in big cities face health issues. This essay will discuss both points and express my opinion.
On the one hand, there are many features of living in big cities such as New York or London. Firstly, most people prefer moving to a major city in search of new jobs, since urban areas contain much more opportunities than rural ones. For example, many members of my family moved to Riyadh which is a megacity and the capital of Saudi Arabia to look for jobs, and they easily found more chances than their city. Secondly, megacities have significant infrastructure in all fields such as health care, public transportation, airports, and all advanced facilities that people need. Finally, usually all ceremonies and festivals are launched in big and tourist cities due to a numerous numbers of tourists and people; in other words, large cities have more entertainment events.
However, I disagree with the idea that living in big cities has a bad impact on people’s health. Although there are drawbacks of living there, such as crowded places, traffic jams, and high level of air pollution, the advantages of living in big cities outweigh the disadvantages, in my opinion. There are several precautions or solutions people may take to avoid them, for instance, they can move into area near work and that will save time and reduce commute. There is also a responsibility on government to reduce air pollution in these cities by planting trees along streets and removing factories to rural areas.
To sum up, I believe that there are tremendous advantages of living in a big city, but also there are several problems that government and individuals should take steps to address them.
