Today am going to be writing on the topic "Growing up in a Rural or Urban Area".
Differentiate between urban and rural areas stating three major features
The difference between urban and rural areas
| Urban | Rural |
|---|---|
| 1. Population statistics | Population statistics |
| Based on statistics urban areas have more population | Rural areas have a lesser population than urban areas |
| --------- | ---------- |
| 2. Structure sizes and development | Structure sizes and development |
| More good-looking structures are seen in urban areas. Urban areas are known as more developed areas providing more job opportunities | More old structures are found in rural areas. One of the challenges faced in rural areas is undevelopment and lack of new job opportunities. Rural areas' economy is mostly based on natural resources available in the location. |
| --------- | --------- |
| 3. Education | Education |
| Urban areas have better educational systems with healthy environments for studying | Rural areas experience poor educational systems with unhealthy environments for studying. |
"A summary;
Despite how antiquated rural areas are it cannot be devalued because of the natural resources and other benefits they provide for their occupants.
Likewise the urban areas, urban areas are more developed areas with better job opportunities.
Which area did you grow up and why?
If you were told to go to the area you didn't grow up from, would you?
If am asked to go to the area I did not grow up I'd love to go because I like exploring new things and new environments, getting to know how the people in that area behave, dress, and their foods, etc.
Just like a wise man once said "Traveling is part of education".

What things are there in the area you grew up from that aren't in the other?
In conclusion, I would like to say this "Despite where you grow up or where you find yourself just make sure you make the best out of it because some of the world's great men did not grow up in the best places".
Thank you for reading my post, pls drop your comments in the comment section. I invite @alexanderpeace and @ruthjoe
You’ve written well about your childhood experiences in rural community where they are natural resources. It’s interesting to know how you assisted your parents with fishing and farming activities. Urban and rural areas are slightly different but both has its advantages and disadvantages when it comes to upbringing.
Nice entry, I wish you success in the contest!
Thank you
"Great men did not grow up in the best places ". I love that. Truly travelling is learning, I had wished while growing up to be like "Goge Africa" I hope I spelt that right. It was a program where the husband and the wife travels to rural area to enjoy their cultures and eat. They ate lovely and amazing meals, meals with vegetables plucked from near by with smoke all around when the meals were prepared. It was a lovely feeling. Thanks for taking me back memory lane.
