SECOND WRITING: DE-URBANIZATION

Second Writing: “De-urbanization”

De-urbanization is a new trend in some developed countries. It consists on a progressive movement of people from cities to small villages.

Spain is still not as “developed” as de-urbanization progress come a real problem. There are only some signs of it progress in old people who come back from cities to their original villages where they were born.

Small villages have minor possibilities or facilities for young people but, however, have all the quietness old people need.

There are a lot of people from Germany and England who move to small villages of Andalusia, like Iznajar in Córdoba, when they go into retirement. As well it’s usual to those people to move to the coast, looking for warm and sunny places.

  1. De-urbanization is a new trend in some developed countries. It consists (of) a progressive movement of people from cities to small villages.

    Spain is still not as “developed” (what do you mean by developed?) as de-urbanization progress come a real problem. (confusing sentence.) There are only some signs of its progress in old people who come (leave the cities to return to the villages where they were born.)

    Small villages have minor possibilities or facilities for young people but, however, have all the quietness old people need.

    There are a lot of (retired) people from Germany and England who move to small villages of Andalusia, like Iznajar in Córdoba. As well it’s usual to those people to move to the coast, looking for warm and sunny places.

    Pretty good. I was a little confused by the first sentence in the first paragraph. But overall, it was clear.

  2. Spain is still not as "devleoped" as other first world countries. As a result, de-urbanization still has not become a real problem.
    Small villages have minor possibilities (and) facilities for young people but, however, have all the quietness old people need.
    As well it’s usual for those people to move to the coast, looking for warm and sunny places.
