Why should you choose a life in the countryside over city living
?
Urbanisation really came to the fore in the latter stages of the nineteenth century and for good reason people wanted to be close to the action and people wanted everything on their doorstep. Many people migrated from the countryside towards city dwellings and life has evolved on ever since, with life in cities becoming ever more congested and country living becoming ever more open. However, are there still some benefits to living in the countryside? What kind of person would choose to live in the countryside and is it a suitable option for families old or young? This article will give a more in depth view on what the country life is really like and why so many people are reverting back to this way of life.
The first obvious implication from choosing a country life is the impact it's likely to have on your health. It goes without saying that the air will undoubtedly be cleaner people who live in the countryside also have regular access to fresh, organic produce and are more likely to lead a healthier lifestyle. Studies have shown that people who live in the countryside, due to the emphasis on living a healthier lifestyle, often have slightly better mental healthy than people who live in major cities.
