Live in the country: the pros and cons

Living in a country house, a better life in a city apartment. Put on one scale garden right outside the window, the bathhouse, the air, the beautiful landscape around, but on the other - the bustle of the city, the noise, smog, traffic jams, noisy neighbors above... It seems that even doubting nothing - urgently move. But not so simple, and objective judgment about the pros and cons of moving out of the city can only people who have long lived in a city apartment, and in the house in the country

We collected their feedback on FORUMHOUSE and get a full picture of the advantages and disadvantages of suburban life.

Cons of life in the country

Those who have been living in the country, honestly warn neophytes: not such a paradise this country life. It is full of all sorts of disadvantages and difficulties.

Minus: schools and razvivashki

It is most important. Children want to give the best of everything: good schools, sports clubs, music and art education, kids - "razvivashki" with excellent teachers. Outputs are two: to live not far from the city and take their children to school, that in fact quite a feat, and for parents and children. Or take for granted that the village kindergarten, learning in a regular village school and muzykalka in the regional center will be for the child is not the worst start in life. The quality of education in an ordinary village school gives a good city, but this is partly offset by a clean country air, distance from the road and traffic. It tells the user FORUMHOUSE tver_vic, carried out the study of human development delayed due to hypoxia in childhood. It turned out that the children from the suburbs to think quickly, and better able to absorb the information, than children from the city center.

Less: work

Find a source of income in a big city it is always possible. Away from the city - is more complicated. If you can not change the urban equivalent job, it can become a big problem; and you have to drive to work in the city. Based on this, one of the criteria for site selection for permanent residence should be the availability of a convenient train station. Feedback from users Forumhouse, living outside the city and five days a week, riding in their offices, it is better that it was 10 minutes by car to the ultimate user-friendly than a 20-minute walk from the settlement, where train stops once a day, stuffed passengers. Scheme "from home by car to the station - from the station to the city by train" is convenient for the fact that did not have to stand in traffic jams at the entrance to the city.

But people who have great experience of suburban life, are advised when choosing a site is not really something to be guided to the place of work: the work can suddenly change, and the house... House - this house!

Helga (User FORUMHOUSE):

I speak from his dacha neighbors living in their homes year-round. From beginning each day we went to the city to work. Afterward, many gradually switched to "Remote to make money" or search for an adequate work in the neighborhood. While away from the city center - an hour's drive, the repair of roads, traffic jams and the possible delay in the daily offices have become their strain.

Minus: medical care

Revealing the disadvantages of living in the country, we must not forget that in many villages do not even have medical stations, not what the clinics.

OlegN (User FORUMHOUSE):

You have a toothache and need to drive about an hour to the city, and then look for where to stick. I think that not everyone will like it.

But to focus on this when buying a house is not recommended. Anyway, in most rural hospitals work one person - the therapist, which in most cases sends patients to the district center. Therefore, it should be possible in which case a quick connection to the district hospital. Qualification there the doctors have enough to cope with the ordinary diseases, and if, God forbid, that serious, you can take the direction to the city.

Minus: neighbors 

In the city you can live for years in one place and does not know the name of the neighbor. it will not work in the village. Relations with neighbors are significant, and on what it will go for you depends on how comfortable is your life. They can get caught and thieves and drunkards, and quarrelsome boring and interesting gossips... The old adage "do not buy a home - buy a neighbor" in the relevant country life, like 200 years ago.

Minus: rural boredom

Townspeople, keen idea of ​​moving "in the nature", it often seems that they can easily come to terms with the lack of a number of government agencies, theaters, clubs, great shopping, the gym next to the house, and then it turns out that all this terribly lacking. Live in the country for three summer months and live there all the time - very different things. Suddenly it turns out that you - finished urbanist and just can not live without the noise of the city?

Minus: everything yourself 

You have to be prepared for the fact that the house - it's not more comfortable than the flat - it is quite another comfort. By the beautiful spacious home, bath, garden and green lawn enclosed need all this to serve. Plumbing from Housing longer call up. Many see this as pluses: live in the country difficult, and yes, it is necessary to sort out the boiler, but will ensure that in the midst of frost will not begin heating problems. Accounts to monitor your well or wells, but the water would not turn off three times in two weeks a year for the enigmatic maintenance.

tver_vic (User FORUMHOUSE):

Ladder for you, no one will wash, do not sweep the yard, the grass does not remove, the snow will not fall off, do not see to, septic tank will not check and clean the over heating.

Minus: avtomobilezavismost 

Without a car, at least some, it is practically impossible to live outside the city, feedback from participants of our portal have confirmed this many times. And if you need to repair the car, especially not fast? This is also necessary to consider, including, and in the selection area, so that if that did not have to walk five kilometers to the station.

Life outside the city: the pros

Dissuading others from rash decisions, describing village life shortcomings, themselves former citizens in 99% of cases, they say: "But back to the city, we would never go back." What makes people to put up with the lack of urban pleasures? What's so special about giving them this "life on earth"? As it turned out, for the "settlers" that's what is important.

Plus: you are a homeowner 

 For families, especially the young, who in the short and in the long run it is not visible on the money an apartment, buying a plot of land in the country is often the only opportunity to become the owner housing. Usually begin with the purchase of the site, and then gaining the money to the construction site - but as they say in FORUMHOUSE, «family building - the best way to raise children, and achieve harmony in a young family». There is an opportunity to build a house a larger area than would have been an area comparable in price of a city apartment. But building a house for three generations - your parents, you, your children, you get one more, just an invaluable advantage: your children grow up in big happy family, and your parents constantly seeing before him grandchildren, have a purpose in life, and they have an incentive to live longer. Your race goes on, and you will build the "Bridge Across Forever".

Plus: the high status 

His house in the country - it is not that the apartment in apartment buildings, and says beutiflet, "Those who have the financial capacity to escape from this anthill, do it without thinking."

Beutiflet (User FORUMHOUSE):

Everything depends on the way of life and his aspirations, but in our village (20 km and 15 minutes to the MKAD), the poorest peasants, on average wealthier the richest citizen in my home in Moscow.

Plus: comfort 

Wherever you have built or bought a house in the suburbs or in the middle of nowhere, it still will not be a village of the sample 80-ies of the last century. Now in any private home available to all so-called "convenience of city», from the warm water closet to the Internet. Moreover, in his own home heating will control you, rather than "Uncle near ventel": will be cold - switch, hot - turn off.

tver_vic (User FORUMHOUSE):

Make a decent toilet-shower is very simple: a septic tank and a well. TV? Yes, even the house hung with plates. The Internet? No question - at least three options.

Plus: the happiness of life on earth 

Just because it is already possible to move out of town. You woke up, went out - and you're in your garden, around the quiet, fresh air and other environmental cleanliness. Many former citizens complain that the first time could not sleep because of the birds, "the nightingales sing like mad, in different voices." In the city, we did not notice the noise of cars, industrial - rural silence in which stand out the chatter of birdsong and crickets, at first seems to some luxury. Children play with the dogs, feed the rabbits running around in the soft green grass, not on a concrete pad. Grudnichok asleep in a stroller on the porch, and my mother at this time can safely engage in household chores. Outside the city, you begin to understand that a significant portion of his life in some artificial conditions and more deprived himself.

Plus: the lack of neighbors 

In your home lives only your family. Over the weekend, you do not wake gnashing drills have left neighbors or loud music from neighbors below, or traditional family scandal from the right neighbors. Nobody turns the music on full blast, not shouting, not stomping over your head, and you will never again flood... When you are a true master in his own house, it gives a sense of freedom and independence.

OlegNovosel (User FORUMHOUSE):

Ill child. With high temperature. In the elevator, I sniffed some sick. And you lived in the house - it would be less likely to pick up any infection.

Plus: the work on the site 

-So live outside the city, to be able to engage in vegetable garden, garden, grow poultry, etc. In addition to organic food, you get a great experience. Village classes give a lot of positive emotions

Misssisss (User FORUMHOUSE):

You will live in your home, be sure to sign up for a hens to them if you look closely, you can fall in love. Such vanity, with its demolition, but because devotees are!

Plus: Parking 

Outside the city there are no problems with car parking. On the one reason to be nervous less.

As we can see, the pros cons continue and vice versa. But…

helga:

But no one had lived in the country a year or two already in the city will not be returned. It's true.

Melared (User FORUMHOUSE):

All my life I lived in the city and did not understand the charm of country living. But now back to the apartment in Moscow we have not drag any gingerbread.

Misssisss:

The challenges that I have faced, in no way do not recaptured my desire to live outside the city. On the contrary, I'm doing something for his family and children, and their children.
