1. Meeting New People
You will meet new people anywhere you move, but the experience is
different in a city because major cities draw all kinds of people to them from
all over the world. There are also more people in a city which means you
will be encountering new faces every day. Meeting and talking to new
people who have had very different life experiences than yours can be
refreshing and give you a new perspective.
2. Activities
If you have lived in the same town for 10 years or more, chances are that
you know the town very well and have done about everything there is to do.
If you spend 10 years living in a major city, you likely won’t come close to
experiencing everything the city has to offer. There is always something to
do in a major city to keep people of all different interests from getting bored.
Most cities have a lively nightlife, different types of food to try, shows of all
types, museums, landmarks, parks, festivals, sports games, and much
more. If you are a visual or performance artist or a musician, there are
plenty of opportunities in big cities to become a part of the scene.
3. Public Transportation
The public transportation system in major cities is a good alternative to
driving yourself and dealing with the traffic and parking situation. Cities
have trains or subways, buses, and plenty of taxis and ride sharing drivers
so you can get where you need to go. Many public transportation options
such as the bus and train are very affordable and free you of the hassle of
driving. If you live in Chicago, for example, the average cost of public
transpiration per month is around $82; in New York, the average cost per
month is around $130 according to Expatistan.com.
It is possible to live without a car in most major cities. According to
AAA, the average is $10,728 or $894 per month for owning and operating
a new vehicle in 2022. It is certainly a hefty cost.
4. Big Events
The biggest events such as sporting events, concerts, festivals, and art
openings happen in major cities. You can catch a concert or a baseball
game without the long drives to and from the suburbs.
