This

essay would discuss the problems encountered by those living in large cities and

also

stating my views as regards the government motivating citizens to migrate to urban areas. Taking a look at the challenges faced by residents of regional towns. The

high cost

the high cost

of living. Living in urban areas is quite expensive, almost everything in

for sale,

, the prices at which they are sold are on the high side. Take as an example; Lagos, where house rent is two times more than what's obtainable in other states, not only is shelter expensive,

food stuffs

at high prices.

Furthermore

, the problem of insecurity is another problem people living in the urban settings are faced with, still using Lagos as an instance; because of the increasing number of Nigerians migrating there, it's becoming over populated,

insecurities The question of government encouraging people to move to regional towns is a no for me, for several reasons.

Firstly

, if people are encouraged to migrate to urban areas, the suburbs may eventually be abandoned, I believe rather than motivating citizens to leave the rural areas, amenities found in

the large

larger

cities should be built in the small cities.

In addition

, if migrating is not discouraged, the city may become over populated,

consequently

leading to pollution and other environmental problems.

Lastly

migrating to the urban areas should not he motivated by the

goverment

. In conclusion, there are several challenges people living in the cities face, which includes; high cost of living, insecurities and pollution,

thus

, movement of citizens to urban settings should be discouraged by the government.
