What is Better: A City or Suburb? (Final)

When someone is moving to a different home, he ponders: should I move to a city or a suburb? Well first of all, you may be wondering what cities and suburbs are. Suburbs are open areas with an abundance of nature, while cities are crowded areas that are generally dirty. When compared with each other, they have many differences.
Then is a city or a suburb a better place to live in? A suburb is a much better to live at. There are many reasons, including that the air in suburbs is cleaner, suburbs are less crowded, and they’re safer.
The first point is suburbs have cleaner air. In cities, the air is polluted from factories excreting greenhouse gases and cars ejecting waste, and there are hardly any trees to exude oxygen. Most suburbs are abundant with trees, with almost no factories or harmful gas from cars. If one stays outside a whole day in a city and a suburb smelling the air, you'll sense a large difference. Suburbs are a lot cleaner.
The next reason that suburbs are better than cities is suburbs aren't crowded. Many people, including me, are claustrophobic, meaning that we're afraid of being in enclosed and narrow places. Cities are heavily populated, so it's very easy to get lost. In the suburbs, everything is spread out and moving around is a lot easier and safer. You'll have a lot more privacy, because there are less people. This also reduces the chance of somehow losing your way.
Finally, there's more safety in suburbs. In cities, many robberies and kidnappings take place. A city's high population makes it more likely to have crimes. Taking a look at the news proves this. Have you heard of a kidnapping in New York, or a bar fight in Las Vegas, or the robbery in Chicago? People who live in a city and are scared of being robbed or kidnapped, should definitely consider moving to a suburb.
A suburb is a much better place to be. Although a city isn't too bad, suburbs are the right choice. Suburbs are nice and clean, not so crowded, and are a lot safer than cities. If one ever comes in contact with a choice between moving to a city or a suburb, he knows the right thing to do. Move to a suburb!
