With the change of the times, more and more young people have gone out from the countryside to the city, after all, the city has certain advantages compared with the countryside.
However, many young people in big cities are not living very well, their wages are simply not enough to meet their expenses, and it is difficult to develop in the city for a long time, but even if they are under great pressure, they are still reluctant to return to the countryside.
So why is that?
There are fewer people in rural areas
Now in the rural areas, we can see that there are basically some old people, and there are very few young people, and even some rural areas have no young people.
Nowadays, there are many villages where the elderly are gone, and after the village is gone, the village is deserted and no one lives, and most of the young people are in the city and do not want to return to the countryside.
Now that the times are developing rapidly, farmers in rural areas have been teaching their children since they were young to study hard, get admitted to a good university, and go to the big city in the future.
People who have lived in rural areas all their lives want to send their children to big cities for development, and now that society has developed and more people are admitted to universities, young people in rural areas almost have the opportunity to go to big cities.
However, when young people from the rural areas go to the big cities, very few of them return to the rural areas, and basically they continue to develop in the big cities.
However, we can see that there are many young people working in big cities, whose lives are not good, and the money they earn can only meet their daily living expenses, and they are still facing a lot of pressure, but they are still reluctant to return to the countryside.
Young people generally go home once during the Chinese New Year, and many people can't figure out why they don't come back since there are many people who are not doing well in the city?
The contrast is too great
As we all know, when you go to a better environment, you will definitely not be happy to let you go back to a worse environment to live.
It's like when we were kids, we liked to watch TV, but when we grew up, our phones were more convenient than TV, and we didn't watch TV very often.
People who have lived in the countryside since childhood, suddenly come to the big city, and find that it is much more prosperous than their hometown, and the quality of life is much better.
As a friend of mine said, he grew up in the countryside and came to the city until university, but after living in the city for a few years, he has become accustomed to the city life.
He said that when he was in college, he saw a lot in the city and had a lot of places to play, but when he suddenly returned to his hometown, there were no bustling high-rise buildings, no living and entertainment facilities, and he was not used to life.
And I have seen more in the city, and I have less common topics with other people in the countryside, which is not to say that I feel superior, but I really have no common topics.
After graduating, he also chose to work in the city, because his parents also wanted him to work in the city, after all, he worked hard to go to school to go to the city to develop.
But in the city, his development is actually not very good, he has no background and no capital, and the salary of the job he is looking for is not high.
He has always wanted to work hard in the city and then make money to buy a house and a car, but after staying in the city for several years, his goal is getting farther and farther away.
When I asked him why he didn't go back, he said that it was not that I didn't want to go back, but that I didn't know what to do when I went back, and that there was no room for development in the countryside because of the majors and knowledge I had learned in college.
I don't know what to do when I return to my hometown, so I can only find a very ordinary job, and then continue to gnaw at the old, so that my life will come to an end at a glance.
And even if I go back, I still don't get used to it, the quality of life in the city, no matter what, is much better than the quality of life in the countryside, and I definitely can't go back.
If they have never been to the city and have been living in the countryside, they may not feel that there is anything wrong with the rural life, but they have seen more in the city, and they are not used to the rural life.
怕回去丢人
In the eyes of the elders in the village, young people who go to work in the city are generally living very well and developing well, so they do not come back.
In their eyes, if they can develop in the city, they must make a lot of money, and the young people also know what the people in the village think, so they don't dare to go back, and if they go back, they will feel very embarrassed.
Someone said that he developed in the city, and the people in the village thought that he was living a good life, and the people in the village chatted with his parents, saying that he must have made a lot of money in the city, and his parents were waiting to enjoy it.
But in fact, his life in the city is not good, how much pressure is in the city, the competitiveness is great, the price is also high, and there is a lot of pressure on his head every day.
But even so, he didn't want to come back, to return to the village, after all, he would suffer a lot of gossip, and this situation also bothered many people.
There are many such young people in the city, they dare not go back to the village, they can only survive in the city, and if you ask him what he is doing in the city, they can't answer, they can only live aimlessly.
People with dreams
For young people who go from the countryside to the city, many of them have dreams and want to make a big career in the city and become a successful person.
There are not a few such young people in the city, most of them have great ambitions since childhood, and they are bound to rely on their own efforts to change their destiny.
For this reason, we can see a lot of young people who are struggling in the city, these young people may have a hard time in the city, but they have not given up, they are looking for opportunities to succeed, they believe that as long as they work hard, they will be able to succeed.
There are many opportunities in the city, if you want to succeed, obviously there are more opportunities in the city, and the pressure of living in the countryside may not be so great, but if you live in the countryside all the time, and don't go to the city, then a mediocre life may be your life.
These people who dream of success in the city, in addition to earning money, also know that life in the countryside is far less than in the city.
Just as the medical facilities in the countryside are not as perfect as in the cities, when the parents are old, the body will definitely get sick one day, if you are in the countryside, the journey to the city to see a doctor is far away and very inconvenient.
Moreover, life in the city is better than in the countryside, so these young people want to work hard in the city and bring their parents to live in the city when they are able.
Therefore, these people, they will most likely not return to the countryside, and these situations have also led to fewer and fewer young people in rural areas, basically all of whom are elderly, and this situation is actually not very good, and young people are also needed in rural areas.
Now the development of the rural areas has also been getting better and better, unlike before, under the construction of the country, the rural areas have also taken on a new look, and some young people have begun to return to the villages for development.
summary
Rural and urban, most people want to live in the city, after all, the quality of life in the city is much better than in the countryside, who doesn't want to go to a higher place?
However, the countryside cannot be without young people, the countryside also needs to be developed, and the blood of young people is needed, and every place has the meaning of existence, whether it is urban or rural, it cannot disappear.
The biggest imbalance in the mainland's development is the imbalance between urban and rural development, and the biggest inadequacy is the inadequate development of rural areas.
