I've been in the city most of my life, and just a few times in the provinces or suburbs. I think the province is a nice place to relax. Most provinces or suburbs i went i feel that life is so simple, so relaxing. Its the exact opposite of the complicated life in the city. For you which is better? living in the city or in province? why is that so?

Living in the province would be nice once in a while. I still would prefer living in the city since I work in the city and there are certain amenities which can't be found in the province. Just as long as the city where I live is not so polluted and the cost of living is not very high then I would stay in my city.

Few job or business opportunities can be found in suburbs than in the city, hence, in this middle aged life, we compete and survive in the city. But really, we enjoy the life of being relaxed, smelling the fresh air, enjoying the sun rise and watching the sunset. We enjoyed the luxury of how a day takes too long than bumping a ride in the city for a rush, we're always running out of time and it just slips easily when you are in the city. You're life is running for money and always with it. More so its like our lives is so fast fleeting when we're in the big city. I ALWAYS LOVE STAYING IN THE PROVINCE AND AM PROUD OF BEING LABELED TO AS "PROBINSIYANO".

I am living in the city but I think it is really better to live in province as what you also said. I mean aside from the fact that the life is simple I could really imagine that it is far from stressful environment and insecurities. In fact you could feel the fresh air every time the sun rises. Aside from that you will be away from pollution. Here in the city I could really feel that you must show off something just to prove yourself. Well hard to explain but that is what I have observed. The only advantage of living in the city is that you can go anywhere at huge malls, you have the opportunity to choose your job as many as you can.

The province is for when you get retired,and you want some peace & quiet,but the city is for the people of the province to build careers,so the city is better for young & ambitious people,and the province is good for old & succesfull people :)
