Some people think living in London would be or is great, some think it wouldn’t or isn’t. But what are the different aspects of living there? What makes the people want to live there? Or the other way around, why don't they want to live there? These are difficult questions and I’m going to answer them by discussing the pros and cons in the following text.
The first thing I want to mention is that many people pass their exams in London. Nearly everyone passes. So it looks like there are very good schools and also good teachers. So if you go to university or even just to school there you can be sure that your graduation will be valued by the future employers you want to work for.
Another point are the high earnings. You’ll be paid very well for jobs you would maybe get less money in another city. So also people who didn't graduate well or something like that are able to earn enough money to live in a good way.
Also a positive aspect of London are the sights. London has many interesting and beautiful sights to visit. So you won’t get bored. For example you can visit the Buckingham Palace or the Tower of London or one of the beautiful parks. This is also a good way to escape from the city-life for some hours, so you won’t get sick by living in such a big city.
So these are the good things about living in London, and now I'll sum up the bad things.
London has got a very high level of air pollution because of the huge number of cars, busses and so on. It’s not healthy to live in a city with that amount of air pollution. You can become ill and also get some heavy ailments because of the exhaust emissions and other bad things in the air.
Also the houses in London are very expensive.Only a few people are able to buy a house in London. They could just rent a house but even this is very expensive, so most people who come to London rent an apartment.
The last point against living in London is the high rate of unemployment. Lots of people have a good graduation and apprenticeship but they can’t find a job. So they were evicted to move away. Or if they don’t want to they have to sell their ownings or houses or something like that.
In the end I come to the conclusion that I think that London is, in my opinion, not a really good place to live at. I think it is nice to visit and everyone should visit it once, but I wouldn’t want to live there. Maybe just a year or something like that, for going to school there, but not for a longer time.
Pretty good comment, Denise! I think I agree: Cities are expensive and noisy, still, I'd move to a bigger city than Heidelberg any day.
