Living in big cities is bad for people's health. To what extend do you agree or disagree with this opinion?

Nowadays, an increasing number of people are concerned about

life

in the

city

. Whether living in big cities is bad for their

health

is a controversial issue. I agree with the view that living in the

city

could lead to various

health

problems for their citizens.

First

, it is clear that there have been increasing pollution levels in cities.

This

is because more and more industrial complexes or businesses are being built in every corner of the

city

and they release a huge amount of toxic gases into the atmosphere.

As a result

, it causes air pollution and various respiratory problems for people living around there.

Moreover

,

city

life

has an adverse impact on mental

health

. To pay for living costs, people who choose to live in metropolises are often under heavy pressure due to their busy work schedules. My uncle,

for example

, has to work over 70 hours per week. He works hards, but he does not earn enough money.

Therefore

, he is always stressed and does not have enough time to spend with his family. According to BBC News, a far higher proportion of urban dwellers suffer from depression and anxiety than those living in other areas. To summarize,

city

life

brings a number of

health

problems to the public. After a thorough analysis of

this

subject, the adverse effects of the debate over

life

in major cities would be greater than the positive effects, and because of

this

, the government should recommend their citizens to live in rural areas than move to urban areas.
