Megacities have there pros and cons but it depends who you are, and if you think they are better to live in. Popular characteristics of megacities are that there is access to popular tourist destnations and buisnesses, there is also many social and comunity opotunities that may not be accessable in other cities. Transportation is also a pro as with so many people to move there is always a good transportation system. Not so great characteristics of megacities include pollution as with so many people in the same place it is a problem, also slums are a problem as with poor pay and high rent. People find it hard to afford proper housing and are forced to live in slums. But really it depends on who you are. Everyone has different taste. By Sophie
