‎ Some young people leave the countryside to live in cities or towns, leaving only ‎older people in the countryside. What are the problems of this issue? What can ‎be done to solve this problem?‎

Nowadays, the population of

cities

is increasing rapidly worldwide. The young generations tend to move to towns and

cities

so only the elderly stay in rural

areas

. In

this

essay, I will discuss overpopulation in

cities

as a negative result of

this

trend and its potential solutions.

Firstly

, the main repercussion of

this

development is the overcrowded population in urban

areas

which can be polluted. These days, the number of citizens is continuously extending,

whereas

the number of

people

who live in the

countryside

is becoming fewer, which can cause excessive environmental problems around the

cities

.

In addition

, only older

people

tend to live in these rural

areas

.

For instance

, today, more than half of the Mongolian population lives in Ulaanbaatar, the capital city of Mongolia, causing a significant amount of pollution. The more young adults move to urban towns, the more problems will arise in the ecosystem.

Secondly

, developing the infrastructure of towns and

cities

in suburban

areas

is one of the optimal solutions. In the

countryside

, the chance of being educated and getting a job is far less than in developed

cities

. The government should focus on the construction of universities and buildings in order to encourage young

people

to live in the

countryside

. If there are more colleges and employers,

for example

, young adults will stay in rural

areas

to live a better life without any obstacles.

Hence

, making a sustainable working and living environment will solve

this

problem. In conclusion, an increased density of citizens and a few

numbers

of

people

who live in the

countryside

will deteriorate the environment. The potential solution would be improvements in the infrastructure of rural

areas

.
