One possible version:
Nowadays, more and more people leave their home town, and they want to go to the city. They think there are more chances in the city and it's easier for them to find jobs. They want to enjoy modern life in the city. But some people don't like city life. They think that the cost of living in the city is higher. They say the traffic is busier and the pollution is more serious.
