I live in a small village Henfield. There are about 500 people here. The village is quiet and life here is slow and easy. You never have to queue in shops or banks. People never throw their rubbish in the steets, so the village is always clean. The air is also very clean because there's not much heavy traffic.It'smuch more friendly here than in a city. Everyone knows everyone and if someone has a problem, there are always people who can help. However,there are some things I don't like about Henfield.One thing is that there's not much to do in the evening. We haven't got any cinemas or theaters. Another problem is that people always talk about each other and everyone knows what everyone is doing .But I still prefer village life to life in a big city
