Village life refers to the lifestyle found in rural areas or small communities. It contrasts with urban life as villages tend to have smaller populations, less infrastructure, and a slower pace. Key characteristics of village life include a close-knit community where people know each other and interact regularly, an economy often based on agriculture, and a simple life with less emphasis on material goods. Villages also typically have strong traditions passed down through generations, limited infrastructure and amenities compared to cities, and natural surroundings.
