In many countries around the world, rural people are moving to cities, so the population in the countriyside is decreasing. Do you think it is a positie or nagative development?

With urbanization, the traditional face of cities has changed, and more and more

people

have abandoned their villages in order to find better jobs and have a good quality of life in urban.

Thus

,

this

trend leads to vacant suburbs. In

this

essay, I will determine both merits and demerits of

this

revolution and clarify why it is a negative development. The first and perhaps the most significant advantage of migrating individuals to urban

areas

is the accessibility of those

people

to amenities and facilities that do not exist in their homeland.

To begin

with, migrants have better career opportunities because there are more job vacancies in metropolises.

For instance

, it is estimated that job opportunities are almost three times more in megacities compared to rural

areas

.

Moreover

, the number of schools, scientific institutions and universities

is

noticeably more in the urban

areas

. To illustrate, based on the survey conducted on

people

moving to cities from rural

areas

in 2020, immigrants pinpointed education as the main reason for their decision.

Therefore

, leaving rural

areas

has had some benefits for the public.

On the other hand

, suburbs without any residents have affected human beings negatively. First of all, moving to rural

areas

means that the agricultural workforce would decrease, and in the long term, agricultural products would fall considerably.

In addition

, one of the most important parts of every culture would be demolished, since

people

in the countryside play a vital part in preserving cultural heritage.

For example

, Abyane which is located in the centre of Iran is empty of inhabitants and their traditions

such

as their language and costumes are in danger of extinction.

To sum up

, based on the arguments cited above, in my point of view, the drawbacks of

this

trend outweigh its benefits. To restrict

this

trend, it is the authorities' responsibility to not focus on urban

areas

, and invest in suburbs to motivate inhabitants to stay there.
