Do you know the advantages and disadvantages of immigrating to America?

When it comes to the United States, people first think of a developed economy, good education and medical care, and perfect social welfare. Of course, after getting the American green card, you can enjoy many benefits, such as.

1) Life

America is a vast country. Except for a few States and cities, most places are very suitable for living. In addition, although the heavy industry in the United States is developed, the air quality is good and the polluted weather is less. In addition, the United States is a country that attaches great importance to food safety. Tap water can be drunk directly, and the food sold is also very safe. Of course, if you shop in an American supermarket, you will find that the price is very cheap, provided that you earn dollars and spend dollars. If you spend RMB, you will definitely feel inappropriate.

2) House prices are generally low.

Buying a house in the United States, as long as it is not in big cities such as Los Angeles and new york, is generally not expensive. Dangerous houses in first-tier cities in China can be replaced by large single-family villas with their own independent yards, garages and even swimming pools. You can bask in the sun on the grass, read books, have a picnic, swim in the swimming pool, or float on the swimming ring to enjoy the sunshine.

3) At work

There are many job opportunities in America. As long as you have the ability, you can always find a job that matches the position and salary. Besides, even if you have no skills, as long as you are not lazy in America, you can at least find a job to support your family.

4) Excellent education and medical services

America is definitely a popular country to study abroad. Among the top 20 higher education institutions in the world, the United States accounts for the vast majority. Besides, the teaching mode in the United States is quite different from that in China. It advocates children's all-round development, and hands-on ability and thinking ability are far more important than the ability to remember knowledge. In addition, if you study in an American private school, the teaching quality will be better.
