I think big cities prorvide you more chances to make success in your career, but more competitive and therefore you have to work and live under great pressures. Small cities provide you comparatively less chances to make career success, but you can enjoy a comfortable life. So working in small cities or big cities depends on the individuals.

I like living in big city, because I like shopping and I have many friends working there. Most of them are my classmates during my school time. But now days I would like live in a small city because the living fee is cheap and I can enjoy my leisure life.

I'm nore of a business savvy type of person and I want to be free of work and I believe if you actually choose which one you would like to live and/or work in then you are a very limited person. I choose living and working from wherever I am on my own time. Just as I do today.

Well for me, it doesn't really matter where I end up. If I live and work in a busy city, then I will always be stressful and tired but the pay is good. On the other hand, living and working on a small city is comfortable and there is not much work but then again, the pay is not that good. So I think both sides are of equal weights and I think I'll be ok with any of the two. But If I could choose where to work and live, I'll work in a busy city but live in a small city or any comfortable town. I may get tired from work but at least, I could rest on a comfy home. Good pay and good life!

I would rather live and work in a small city. But I grew up in a small town. So I am not used to the big city. It just seems to rushed and crowded for me. I think you can be a success at your career no matter where you live. As long as you work hard at it. You can make it anything you want it to be.

Actually, I do not know yet. I think working in a small city is more appealing to me. Why? It is because I do not like pressures and competition. Although, in a big city there are more chances of success and promotion to further enhance my career, I do not need it. As long as I have work and can buy all my needs, then I do not have to worry.

I prefer to stay in big cities because it gives you lot of exposure to many things [both good and evil] take up the good ones and ditch the evil ones

Hi mari123, i prefer big city. the place that i can grow and learn a lot. I found book store, internet, and equal friend who can understand what im talking about. My mom and dad in another island and in a small city but we use to live in the big city and now my father got is pension so he go back to his home town. Every one there (the neighbor) jobless so they starting to look for somebody mistakes. They would cheer and talking about it with everyone else. I think there aren't too much to do with this people so they doing that. Its really small city and i find there is no development in me over there.

i will choose to live in a big city, for there are more oportunities when it comes to looking for a job. i am a singer and it will not be healthy for me to live in a small city and a little oportunity for a job like i have right now.

I would prefer to work in a big city but to live in a small one so that I can spend the money i earned in the big city to buy cheaper things in the small city and for that to happen, the big city and the small city have to be next to each other.LOL!

Hello and Hi mari. I would choose living and working in small city. The reason is I love peace not a crowded life with job, children, husband and house. Although its quite hard to success but I think I can do it because I want to be a business woman so, I just face my computer everyday. That is not a big problem I guess. HAPPY LUCKY. **prettyhanan**

My hometown is a small city ,and i enjoy the peace and freedom there, besides every person knows every person's conditions . when some one was strapped in trouble, others will try hard to help them out, which is really quite touching.But now i come to this city to attend university. I sometimes feel bad just because it is so crowded here, and so many traffic.people here walk by each other and even never show a little smile.I really want to live in small city.
