The city is usually where everyone who is grown up desires to be. This is because we all know beyond speculations that life is better in the city. In the city there are opportunities for personal self improvement. Those who try to leave the village, rural settlements usually see opportunities to build up their lives economically when they get to the city
The city is highly populated. People migrate into the city from all the remote settlements in search for jobs and better life realization. Mostly the city is dense with young people. The youths do not find it interesting staying and growing in the villages. They do not see fulfillment spending their lives in the villages. So, trying to achieve a better life than the one they were born into, they move away from the villages to the city.
The Search For Education Self-developing Skill
Many things cause us to leave the remote settlements. We moved to the city to receive education. Higher institutions are built in the cities. There are only a few elementary schools in the villages. Those who had no means of moving to the villages usually end up living like illiterates. They can't even communicate properly in the English language.
Aside from formal education, many try to learn artisan jobs to make a living for themselves. They get to the cities to learn such professions and stay there to practice them. Looking at it, we discover that the largest population of people in the cities are private practitioners. We have fashion designers, printers, shoe menders and the rest. Artisanship contributes in no small measure in building our economy.
