Task answer
In a number of countries in the world, people of countryside decide to leavre their home towns and move to urban areas. Populations of rural areas are getting effected by this move. I think this is a positive development and here are the reasons for this belief.
As people move to cities from village areas, they experience a major change in quality of life as each facility is very easily accessible and necessities are much easier to obtain. Oppertunities for better health care and higher level education are easily available in urban areas. better infrastructure for a healthy life style is crucial and in cities, the overall infrastructure is far better than village life.
The life in villages is much slower and calm whereas the cities are completely opposite. In rural areas, everything is done in very calm and smoth way. On the other hand, cities are so busy and the overall life is so fast which makes a person get out of their comfort zone and required them to be very active and smart about their decisions. All of this teaches a person to be effiecient and effective in everything they do.
To sum up all of this, i think that people who move toward cities make a smart decision as they get to learn a lot of things that they would never even get to experience while living in their hometowns. As it is famously said that, no body succeeds while sitting in personal comfort. The population of villages will not suffer that much because the ones who still live in villages are still reproducing which helps create a good balance of population.
