Which do you prefer, living in the countryside or the city?

I was born in the countryside and I spent all my childhood in there. Now I lived in the city. I miss very much the time when I was a child, the blue sky, the fresh air, and the quiet place. Even now, I can not adapt the life in the city because of the pollution, the noisy voices and the transportation here. Which do you prefer? Living in the countryside or the city?

hi, when i was a kid me and my family lived in the countryside,but when my parents went to the city we siblings also transferred to the city,actually the air in countryside is more good and healthier rather than in the city,because pollution are active in the city.

Reminds of the story of the country mouse and the city mouse. There are really people who like the peace and quiet of the country. There are also people who can't survive without the glittering neon lights and the loud metallic music. As for me, I am semi-urban. I live in a valley where I can see the stars at night yet I do my marketing at the supermarket just around the river bend. Am enjoying both worlds.

I grew up in a big city, but I live in the countryside now. My husband and I chose to look for a house in the countryside because we want to have many animals and because it is cheaper to live here. When we just moved here it was a big change for me, because I have been living in the city most of my life, but now I enjoy living here in our village. In the city our neighbours were very noisy and there were lots of traffic close to our home, everything is much more quiet here and there is less pollution.
