The first similarity is convenience. What is "convenience" to you? One might say immediately that this is only a characteristic of city life, but actually, it is not always true. For example, even though they both have convenient access to facilities such as hospitals, malls, restaurants, or church availability, still, they vary in time to commute to these facilities. In city, people’s accessibility to these facilities are closer in between 3-7miles while in country it takes longer, possible the closest one might be 12 or more miles to drive to. It is also true that they have better schools in the city and these are not wrong such as colleges, universities, and public transportation (metro) while there is absence of this in the country life but presence of high, elementary and middle schools in both. Both city living and country living offer conveniences, but these are reflect differently in time, accessibility to each other
Second similarity is life conditions such as Job opportunities, pollution, enjoy more entertainment such as sports, theatre, fine arts e.t.c ; however, Some people believed that life in city provides more Job opportunities than the country people. These are not wrong because you have much population in the city which calls for more companies with better salary earning while in country, you have fewer jobs available as well as better entertainment like movie tarven, theatre, museums, and zoos
