The main reasons for this was because cities provided people with access to high-paying jobs and cultural attractions. Life in the city was meant to be more lively and rich. However, since the 1950s, many families have decided to move outside of cities (to suburbs), as these were considered to be better for young families.
All over the world, most jobs are found in the cities with the rural areas meant for retirement after the toils and bustles of the cities. That is why there is an increasing migration rate of the young ones from the rural areas to the cities. This is as aresult of the industries founded in most of those cities with a corresponding urban lifestyles.
<em>As for the cultural attractions, most of the cultural heritages found in the cities where made popular by the tourists who visits such places. For example, the Bazyantine empire relics in the middle east (Present day Turkey) are found in developed city of Istnbul as a result of touristic activities that has gone in such areas over the past few decades.</em>
In summary, for high-paying jobs and cultural attractions, the city comes tops among the options that provides residents living at a particular place in any given country.
