Having spent my first 29years in the city (Boston,USA) and my next 29years in town (Gold Beach) make me realize how different the city and small town life:
People:When you walk around in the city,few people smile at you.In small towns,people are friendlier.Store clerks in city stores are polite but not friendly.In small towns,clerks are lively and talkative.They may have children who are in the same class as yours.The women in small towns are particularly friendly and knowledgeable.They know everybody and everybody's children.So there is no private (隐私) life in a small town.
Food:In a city,people go to the supermarket to buy food once a week.In small towns,you can go to the market every day and the food is fresh,and the price is lower.And there's always fruit on sale.You may even go to the farm nearby to buy the fresher vegetable too.
Others:A big city has better hospitals,doctors and medical care.If you get really sick in a small town,better medical care may be a few hours'drive.And there are no universities,museums,galleries,shopping malls or theatres in a town,which make life not so convenient and less fun.Teenagers may find nowhere to go and play.
In general,for many young people,the city is exciting,while the small town is boring.For adults the city noisy and crowded,while small town is quiet and relaxed and you can see a huge and black sky with millions of stars at night.
