Some people spend most of their lives living close to where they were born. What might the reason for this? What are the advantages and disadvantages?

A set of
people
devote a large part of their lives to spending in and around their born
town
due to various reasons described below.
Nevertheless
of the reasons,
this
has
both
negative and positive impacts on each individual and the nation as a whole as elaborated below. As I believe the most common reason to live in the
places
where
people
are born is the ownership of the
properties
such
as houses and lands. Most of the residents get possession of the
properties
from their parents, so, if they want to move away from the
places
they were born they should buy
properties
and settle down.
This
process requires quite a lot of money , which most countrymen couldn't afford.
In addition
, the responsibility of looking after the parents and attachments that
people
have with their relatives
also
play major roles in not moving away from where the
people
originated. There are
both
advantages and disadvantages to sticking to the born place. On the one hand, living in the original home
town
improves social security.
That is
, there will be no risk to the children as they grow up in and around their own relatives and the aged population will
also
have a secure life with their own children.
Likewise
,
both
children and elderly
people
will benefit and
this
will give social satisfaction to middle-aged
people
.
However
, on the other ,hand living in and around the born
town
will definitely increase the travelling costs as well as reduces the effective time that can be allocated to work and learning as most of the workplaces
places
and good schools are located in
town
areas , which are way from the brith
places
.
This
will negatively impact the economy of the country.
That is
why in the modern world most entrepreneurs encourage industrial villages consisting of all facilities
such
as schools, daycare centres and eldercare stations . To conclude,
people
tend to live nearby
places
to their hometowns as they have the ownership of
properties
inherited from their parents and
this
has
both
positive and negative impacts on the social and economical well-being of the country.
