Personally, I think the reason why there is a relatively large gap between the life of rural elderly and the life of urban elderly is mainly in the following aspects.
First of all, from the living conditions, the rural elderly living in the house is mostly the rural kind of winter need to heat their own house, such a house, although the same as the city's house, there is running water and power supply facilities, but such a house does not have gas, cooking time also need to use gas canisters, or through the use of induction cooker and other electrical appliances to achieve, and the rural elderly living in the house is not like the city's elderly house has property to carry out. The first thing that you need to do is to get your hands on a new one, and you'll be able to do that.
Secondly, in terms of income, most of the urban elderly have pensions, while the rural elderly rely more on their own farms or rely on their children's support to realize, from the income point of view, the urban elderly income level is much higher than that of the rural elderly.
And in terms of daily cultural life, the urban elderly are relatively richer, they can easily go to the city concept of the library to read books, newspapers or to participate in their own neighborhoods of some square dance, photography and other activities, for the rural elderly, in this regard they are also relatively lack of.
Of course, compared to the urban elderly, the rural elderly can enjoy the beautiful scenery and fresh air in the countryside in their daily lives, and can eat their own vegetables and fruits. Therefore, for both the rural elderly and the urban elderly, they are each able to experience the beauty and convenience in their own lives.
