In many places, new homes are needed, but the only space available for building them is in the countryside. Some people believe it is more important to protect the countryside and not build new homes there. What is your opinion about this?

In large

cities

, lack of vacant lands and space has become a major issue to build new houses, and some argue that the

cities

should grow toward rural

areas

.

However

, others and I are having concerns regarding

this

belief. Destructing the countryside would affect the economy as well as threatens the life of wild animals who live there. Both ideas will be extensively analyzed and discussed. The food industry and its economy is mostly dependent on rural

areas

, and building houses

as a result

of growth in large

cities

would hardly affect them.

For example

, most of our daily whole food and goods are produced in the countryside,

although

they might be processed in urban

areas

. Constructing houses would definitely interrupt the agricultural process, while the rich lands would be replaced with concrete dwellings.

As a result

, many people residing in

such

regions would lose their jobs,

hence

their lands and economic power.

Moreover

, with the advent of megacities, wildlife has been pushed toward the countryside. Many wild animals left the

cities

to live in less populated regions, and the growth of urban

areas

limited their environment to live in.

For instance

, in the north of Iran, tigers moved away from their habitat due to moving folks and residing in their regions.

Accordingly

, they lost their food and water resources which they relied on and

this

fact lead to their extinction

in addition

to other factors. In conclusion, even though space is a significant issue which prevents people to build their homes, moving to rural places should not be done before thinking about its consequences.
