Many people aspire to live the high life in a big metropolis at some time in their lives. While there are advantages to living in the city, you can’t deny that living in a fast-paced metropolitan atmosphere may be stressful at times.
That is why some people persist in their desire to settle in the province, away from the stress of city life.
Here are a few reasons why it’s also important to live somewhere away from skyscrapers and busy highways.
Living costs are lower. According to Numbeo’s latest data, Metro Manila has a higher consumer price index (CPI). According to Investopedia, the CPI is a weighted average of prices for a basket of consumer goods and services such as transportation, food, and medical care. Because most vegetables, fruits, and other items are grown locally, they are substantially cheaper in the province. Other services, too, are less expensive as compared to their equivalents in Metro Manila.
Accessibility. Outside of Metro Manila, traffic concerns are basically non-existent. You will be able to get to your desired location faster if there are less automobiles and people. Furthermore, Metro Manila is a landlocked city in the heart of Luzon. Living in neighboring provinces will provide you with access to beaches, mountains, and other destinations ideal for weekend excursions with your family and friends.
Best of both worlds. Many people opt to live in cities since they are the hub of many opportunities. However, there are several drawbacks, such as traffic, pollution, and stress. Many regions outside of Metro Manila, such as Cavite, Laguna, and Batangas, provide the convenience of rural living while yet being only a few hours away from the country’s capital.
