   Is living on the coast better than living in the mountains

Both places to live are great but if i was to choose i would live on the coast because you are closer to the beach and It also will be a lot easier to drive home because there are no mountains to drive over. And in the summer when it is really hot you can just step out of your house and go for a swim. There are a lot of good things about living on the coast like swimming, going for walks, and hanging with friends. And if you have pets you can just go for a walk down the beach. But if you live in the mountains and you have pets there won't be many places to take them for walks because of all the uphill and downhills on the mountains.

But there are also bad things about living on the coast like if there is a earthquake there might be a tsunami or a flood. And in winter it will be very cold because of the ocean and the cold breeze coming off the water. but if you want to live in the mountains it will be very cold as well because you are at a high altitude. both places are very cold to live but i think still think that living on the coast is better.
