If we compare the village life with a town life, we will find a lot of differences between the two, the most important difference being/is career opportunities and growth prospects of the people living there. The people living in village are usually into agricultural activities and earn their livelihood by working in the farms only. On the other hand, in a town people have various means of earning their livelihood like business, government services, private jobs etc. The schools in the villages are not that high profile and not fully equipped to give the children the latest knowledge of the advancements in the world. On the other hand, schools in towns are very good and provide international level of teaching to the children, keeping them up to date with everything happening around us. A villager has a lot of time all throughout the day and so he is a friendly person, who likes to keep his/her relation with everyone on good terms. As a result villagers are very helpful and friendly people. On the other hand, people living in the town do not have time even for their own family. So they are neither interested in the happenings in other people’s life and neither are they much friendly to be with. Towns have the facilities of a large number of shopping complexes that sell objects from use from all over the world for the customer to choose from. On the other hand, villagers are not that much developed and the options for the purpose of shopping are limited and the articles available are usually indigenously manufactured. In short we can say that the village life, in spite of being peaceful and quite, is not as good as a town life as far as the growth of livelihood and education quality is concerned. But it has its benefits/advantages.
