I have experienced living in both city and country side. As you have mention both have pros and cons. So then the choice can be made by the mode and style of the person who want to live in the best suited place for him. One who want to live in peaceful a bit silent and fresh air then he/she may definitely in a country side where he/she will have the peace of mind. And if anyone want to live a crowded and full of lights area then he can surely live in a city with great comfort.
I personally enjoyed both and I love being changing my place from time to time when I have some holidays I ho to country side otherwise I live in a city!
Best regards!
