Rural Vs Urban Living.docx

Rural vs Urban living The way of a person’s happiness and wellbeing comes from a healthy state of mind irrespective if you come a global village or a town square. Both rural and urban lifestyle carries different norms and social ethics that make them unique, which is where they stand out from each other. The main factors that should be taken into consideration when comes to such a crucial topic such as this is, the performance of employment rate in each domain, the health of individuals and even the social capital which is basically the level of income of families. The world is moving at a faster pace which shows why economies should update themselves to be suitable in order to fit the trend of globalization. The movement to be globally suited increases the complicity between rural and urban living. The idea of balancing rural and urban lifestyle is very controversial due to the vast differences it posses against each other. The rate of employment is favorably high in urban regions because of its rapid development in industrialization which as a result indicates that there is a lager living in sizeable regards to the population in the urban center. By this it can be said that urban regions tend to be more busy then rural. Another main reason that can be arguably said to show dissimilarity between them is that people living in urban area tend to live longer than citizens living in rural. This is mainly because of the heterogeneous trait that the cities have inculcated and where the rural regions are lacking, moreover moving at a slower pace. The concept of being heterogeneous is mainly due to the stretch of heavy competition between industries which has encouraged the advancement of science as well as technologies. This reach in advance ‘techno’ has resulted in better healthcare, education, entertainment etc. Lastly what makes rural different from urban living is the level of income of families. Since there are more opportunities in working in developed cities and towns it surly steers away the line of poverty to a major extent. The rural crowd is surprisingly more entrepreneurial but due to lack in resources it falls behind. In the case of urbanization it can be seen that there’s a large scope in investment through which investors and other growing companies invest contributes towards the growth of both existing and start-ups. Though both of these domains differ from each other people still tent to have a livelihood because of which we can still see similar jobs that continue to exist such as being a teacher, shopkeeper, blacksmith and many more, but these similarities don’t add up in knowing which is more favorable or convenient in terms of living. The most important thing is that citizens living in such areas seek is well-being of their self and of their own families. Even if you find a wealthy business man in a city it doesn’t mean you won’t find a rich farmer in a village. This shows that every individual either living in rural or urban follow a basic routine to perform their day to day activities. Both of these domains have a fast and furious flow of life where people struggle to have a livelihood.

The main factor that both share is that they both together contribute towards the per capita of the country’s economy, this being said it can be understood that both play an important role towards gross domestic product and if either is effected it will slow down the economy. Lastly the small elements or components that both these area share are the language and value shared among people like having their own country pride or human priorities, these priorities could be set on religion for example either you stay in any part of the country you will still find people going to church, mosque or temple. The central contribution of these analyses is more of knowledge based of this continuum which is the rural and urban area. We could end this discussion by saying that the urban and rural livelihood has more differences and fewer similarities and these differences make this a very controversial topic. The hypothesis that we contracted when we compared these result between the wealthy business man living in the towns and rich farmers living in villages shows that it is a natural phenomena that contributes towards the economic development. Expectation become more complex and isolated when explaining each dimensions as each of them are dynamic in their own way. Here we reflected the difference effects of urbanism and rural on different factors such as health, employment and income of individuals and families according to the contribution towards the economic development.
