More and more people are migrating to cities in search of a better life, but city life can be extremely difficult. Explain some of the difficulties of living in a city. How can governments make urban life better for everyone?
An increasing
number
of people
are indeed moving to urban areas
to seek opportunities without anticipating extreme difficulties. Several problems have resulted from this
tendency and some efficient solutions from the government can tackle them.
Living in cities is becoming more burdensome due to the accumulated number
of migrants. To begin
with, when more people
move to urban areas
, the unemployment rate will be on the rise because the number
of people
seeking jobs may overtake the opportunities offered. Therefore
, migrants may have to shoulder some financial burdens, such
as electric bills or rentals, even when they are not employed. Furthermore
, the increasing number
of commuters in the inner city contributes to the amount of exhaust fume released into the air and consequently
results in air pollution. Had it not been for this
transition in the labour workforce, urban citizens would not have been subjected to respiratory diseases such
as shortness of breath or lung cancer.
However
, the aforementioned problems can be addressed by some remedies conducted by governments. Firstly
, governments should move enterprises to the outskirts. Thanks to this
modification, people
living in rural areas
can look for job opportunities without leaving their hometowns, and urban citizens can avoid polluted air. Secondly
, the government should increase agricultural production prices to incentivize people
living in rural areas
to focus on their profession. This
is because the current salary cannot help them cover daily expenses such
as food and school fee for their children, so they have to resort to another career path to earn a living.
In conclusion, moving from the countryside to urban areas
may bring about some financial and environmental matters. The government can potentially deal with these problems by relocating industrial firms and increasing people
’s monthly income.Submitted by happyhihihehe on
