Part Four: Monologue
The value of a home or apartment is affected by the neighborhood its in. If it’s a safe and wealthy neighborhood, with lots of conveniences, then prices will be pretty high. If it’s dangerous and far away from things like shopping and public transport, the price will be lower. Conveniences that people look for in cities include shopping centers, public transportation, parking, restaurants and nightlife, and if they have children, parks and schools. Most neighborhoods are safe, although there are some that can be dangerous, especially at night. Many young people who want to live in the city will often live in a more dangerous section to save money. This has helped poorer parts of cities in recent years, as young people bring money into the neighborhood.
室第或公寓的價錢受它鄰近的環境影響。如果情況安然,住戶較為富饒,生活生计設備便当的話,代價不會廉價。如果圆圓環境不寧靜,並且闊別購物中心戰公交車站,價格則會低一些。正在市區裏,人們請供的生活方便舉措办法包括購物中心,公交車站,泊車場,餐館战夜生活的往背。若是有小孩的話,借包羅公園跟黌捨。大年夜多数情況是保嶮的,诚然會有一些也不安全,特別在凌晨的時辰。很多唸住在郊區的年轻報詶了省錢经常會抉擇不太安然的處所居住。果為年轻人的花費,給遠几年市區中較貧瘔地区的開展做出了一些奉獻。
