I will try to find out why
people
decide to change and the difficulties related to
city
life
. In
this
,world
people
's needs are changing very fast. Finding a job in small towns is becoming very difficult for young adults, so they are forced to move to big
cities
, where usually big companies
such
as Microsoft or Google have their headquarters, trying to apply for a place.
In addition
, in big ,
cities
you can get to know a

of new
people
, with different cultures and knowledge, and
this
may impact your way of seeing
life
;
this
aspect reminds me of one of my closest friends, who is from Germany, that during
last
year helped me see the world through different eyes.
On the other hand
, new movers can find some difficulties like finding a place to stay; in fact, renting a house in a metropolis can be very expensive and very hard to find with no references,
for example
in Milan you can hardly find a house for less than seven hundred euros.
Moreover
, youngsters that are used to a rural mentality can be a little stunned by what a large
city
can offer in terms of the rhythm of
life
. In conclusion, I think moving to
cities
can be a good thing only if you have some references or if you already know someone in the
city
that can help you with a job or an apartment,
otherwise
