I like living in the countryside for a number of reasons. It is a peaceful place with fresh air. We can enjoy a healthy natural condition without worrying much about air pollution. Moreover, rural is a safer place than a city. Because most of the villagers are friendly and willing to help each other. There is less traffic so it's safe for children. The special thing that people like living in the countryside is the cost of living here usually cheaper so this is an idea place to raise the child. In contrast, the bad things are very rare in the countryside. To sum up, except the problem of income, the countryside is a residence better than the cities.
I like the life in the countryside because it’s quiet and peaceful. We can enjoy the cool and fresh air every morning
