City life is full of advantages and disadvantages. There are a lot of advantages of living in a city. The people who live in cities enjoy some special facilities and comforts unlike the village people. Their houses are modern, streets are well-lighted. They can go shopping and buy everything they need. In case of sickness they can avail the treatment of best doctors. Moreover, they can recevice education in schools, colleges and universities of high standard. They can also visit libraties, parks, museums and so on to stimulate their minds. But city life has some drawbacks too. The city life is very fast. Everybody is rushing for a better life, a better luck and a better opportunity. In city area people usually use vehicles run by fossil fuesl which causes havey smoke. Those smoke causes air pollution. Thus, people living in urban areas take the soup of chemicals. We don't see the harmful gasses but we inhale it. The fast life, the foul and smoky weather and dirty atmosphere cause health problem. Last but not least city life is more or less artificial and monotonous. It has no touch with nature whatsoever
