More and more people today are moving from the countryside. Why is this happening? Do you think it is a positive or negative development

Nowadays, it is noticed that the young generation want to migrate from the rural area to metropolitan cities for different multiple reasons. The main reasons are that the young generations have different life goals, as some people want to move for better job opportunities and others want to settle there permanently for their kid’s future. I think it is a positive change and

also

the negative impact on the

infrastructure

of cities.

To begin

with, mostly young adults leave their homes and migrate to big cities for better job opportunities, because small towns do not have job opportunities sufficient positions and

also

hence

, they do not have a chance for

career

growth there.

Therefore

, they have to survive there with limited salaries. As any youngster wants to

career

growth

further

his

career

and acquire luxury lifestyle so they move towards the urban area to get these benefits and enjoying a luxury lifestyle in cities.

For example

, according to Dawn newspaper every year 50,000 people (age group between 20years to 35years) are migrating to big cities for their

career

growth and a better future.

On the other hand

, the migration of people from remote areas to big cities creates challenges for government authorities, due to continuously people moving towards metropolitan cities it hits

infrastructure

of urban areas. Cities become overpopulated and traffic

also

increases whereas the

infrastructure

of cities fails and the result will economic cries start and inflation rise. The best example of

this

scenario is Karachi city. In Karachi, people migrate from different part of the country and settled there.

Hence

the transport system is destroying and the living standard becomes low due property price increases. To summarize, moving rural areas to big cities is good, which gives a plethora of opportunities to the youngster but

this

movement creates many problems for local authorities in terms of inflation, and destroy the

infrastructure

of cities.
