There is something that irritates me so much. This factories that are found within the city. At night people who live around this factories don't sleep because of the noise this factories keep making.
Like that is not enough during the day, people can't get fresh air due to the smoke this factories keeps hooting.
Can't the government relocate this factories to like city outskirts?
Is it really right to have too many factories in the middle of the city.?
Are u OK with the locations of factories in your country or cities?

How long that factories existed there? Are the factories the main or major source of the government's taxes?

@Nakitakona it's been there for a long time now and actually it's not the main or major source.
But I don't understand why it's still within the city

My roommate sleeps with a White Noise Machine running, so I guess it's best just to get used to the noise.
And if tthey move the factores to the outskirts, won't all the workers pollute just as much driving their vehicles out to work and back home?
And the fresh-air ... would it help if you planted more trees or grass or flowers or vines?

I think factories provides a livelihood some people out there. But we can't tolerate if their presence do not follow any rules instead destroy environment. The government must warn them.

Hello and Welcome to mylot!! I would like to share my take on your discussion. There are advantage and disadvantages of having factories in an area. One advantage is that it can give stable jobs to people.And I am sure that once the factory operates it is under the company's strict health checks .The disadvantage that I can see is it may be harmful to the people not working for the factory.The people that surround the factory did not go under the company's strict health check so they might get sick of the fumes, smell the factory is giving. There should be permits to operate and health checks before they opened. And it should not be placed on a residential area for safety reasons. Leaders of the neighborhood should have a talk with the factory's owners and air their complaints in a nice and legal way .
