I would love to live in either but for the sake of this essay I would pick a quiet neighborhood. For one, if a family needs a quiet place to make sure their baby doesn’t wake up. It would be much harder to keep a baby asleep in an apartment in a busy city. It would ultimately be a much quieter and calmer area and since I don’t like busy stores and car horns at all hours of the night. Nobody would like to stay up after having a long day of work/school and other interactions with people. Being in a quiet little county side is just what everyone needs. At least once in their lives. If you were a single person working for yourself and you need your own space, you will always find comfort in a small town. Everyone knows everyone and you can always find the help you need. Who needs a big town when you have some really close friends and a cute little house. When you live in a city there would be too many dangerous people and places, it’s too loud and bright. In the city you can’t see all the stars light up the night sky. All the light pollution in the city isn’t healthy for anyone. A quiet neighborhood is the obvious choice.
What would you prefer? A busy city or a quiet neighborhood. This is a question that may trouble your brain. In my opinion, both of these have their pros and cons. A city with commercial needs and daily life resources is hustling and busy. In contrast, a quiet neighborhood is where you can observe the beautiful greenery and nature around you, and go around with your daily work without any disturbance. Living in a city, there are many cons such as the city has many factories which can cause health issues but in a quiet neighborhood, you can live a healthy life but the con is that the neighborhoods are mostly away from the main civilization. Cities generally have better infrastructure, an education system, and advanced health care facilities. You get to meet people from all walks of life, and learn to coexist with people from different ethnicity, race, caste, and culture; hence you become more tolerant, and open-minded and start respecting each other differences. Whereas countryside people are less tolerant, the caste system still prevails and the powers lie with a certain group of people.
It shows a serious undertone to laying out the scene. It helps the reader understand that the Sheriff isn't fooling around and that something important is starting.
