Why is this..!??

Question

"People who live in countries find it very hard to get access to school, stores and employment".

if so why!?? i have always lived in cities and i found it strange when i heard that!!

Answer 1

Small towns in the country don't support the bigger schools, stores. and their are not that many places to work.

Answer 2

If we are within easy commuting distance, we can avail ourselves of city amenities.

But we do not have the population to support a lot of great facilities out here.

I live 7 km outside of a city of 350,000 people,so in my area there is no local appetite for many urban facilities... we all drive into the city. Further out, we might see a village trying valiantly to provide all services urgently needed.

But will we ever see the country side traversed with public transit down our roads at a distance that will allow us to  comfortably walk to the bus?

NO! it would be much more costly than use of private cars. It would use more fuel than would private cars.

What can work out in the country is new technology that does not require laying cables, running public transit over these many km of roads. I am working over a high speed internet connection connected to a micro-wave tower half way to the city. We can maintain these sparse networks at far lower cost than a cable... even cheaper than in-city cable.  We can use these low cost systems to provide university level education in the deep hinterland, without high population density.

I worked from home as a programmer, so even some distant job opportunities are stretching out here, and even to teh deeper hinterland.

Areas hundreds of km from a city will have to use different technologies, and often use a local town as a concentration point.

Answer 3

The people who live in the country have to drive many many miles to get into an area of higher population to find jobs, shopping centers, health care that sort of thing because there are relatively few people living in rural areas so it is not fnancialy feasible to have a business there..

Answer 4

The sentence is not quite complete.  It could either be people that live in countries ... that makes no sense, because most everyone technically lives in a country.

Or it could mean county, and in America everyone lives in one county or another.

Or it could be living in the country not a city.  You don't have to move too far out into the sticks to find out there is no water, sewer, cable TV, internet, electricity, gas, supermarkets, or other amenities of civilization.

Why you ask?  It costs about the the same amount of money to lay cable and string wire and create infrastructure whether  you service a few farmers or a thousand homes in a suburb.

In economic terms, the marginal cost of stuffing one more person in a city is always cheaper than creating new infrastructure.  Hence cities naturally get more crowded, not because anyone likes it, but because the economics are overwhelming in favor of crowding.

Answer 5

hey your question is not quite clear but according to how i get it,the people who do not have access to such services might be people living in poverty stricken societies. It is not their fault that they don't get the essential things but their leaders  are to blame. If a country has corrupt leaders there is no way it is going to grow unless they mend their weaknesses.Maybe you are in a developed country where things like this are at every-ones reach but if you go to the developing countries, they have way too many problems that they don't get access to various things like, health care, clean water and decent housing and this is why life expectancy in this countries is very low compared to developed countries
