Being that I am not someone who likes to be in crowded places, I feel that a cheap city with low pay would probably be the quieter option and would be a place I would feel better off in. With the pay being low but the city being cheap, it would more than likely suit and I would be able to manage in a city like that over a busier city. Placing myself in a situation I would not like just so that I got higher pay wouldn't be an ideal situation at all.

Yes that's true, but it's also depends on how well the job is paying
True that. If the pay is really high, the person can invest. But I still prefer a cheap city with low pay. I can run side hustles to augment the pay

I think in a cheaper city, one can easily save money for capital projects. My friends in big cities are living fine but none of them own a house.

Since I am living in the city, I need to face the cost of living that is quite higher than in rural areas. Although I would want to have two places, in the city and in the province.

I prefer to live in an expensive city. Hong Kong is an expensive city, but there is no guarantee that you get a high pay job. If that is the case, you can choose to live in the rural side of the city where housing cost is lower. When you want to enjoy the facilities, you can travel to the center of the city once in a while.

This time many prefer to shop at a reasonable prices. There are also cheaper goods in a big city. The small city here is very far from my city that sells expensive and not expensive stuff.

Have you realized that expensive cities also come with high bill rates. And you don't get that luxury of negotiation. I would rather live in a cheaper city and have Peace of mind.

If the pay is good i do not see why i wont take this job in particular. With time i can learn to manage my resources better so i can save up something reasonable from it.

There are some people that won't trade their comfort for anything and would want to stay on the expensive city. I am a pragmatic person and choose the cheaper city.

I prefer for the expensive city for the goods sold are authentic. There are also many things to buy good for our eyes. But I do not know if there is a cheap city in my place.
