Where is it easier to live in big city or smaller city? 

Since I had the opportunity to live in a big city like Chicago, I can definitely see the difference of Chicago and South Bend. I would like to know the advantages and disadvantages of living in small city vs. big city.  I would be interviewing people in Chicago and South Bend and ask them how happy they are in the place they are currently living. I will be asking several of questions to the people, for instance in what city has more job opportunity. Taxes are higher in Chicago but it has more job opportunity? In South Bend taxes are lower but it doesn’t have great job opportunities? Does traffic bothers you? What city is better to have your children to grow up? This are couple example questions I would be asking, I actually know a lot of people from my job that lived in Chicago and am always asking them how they ended up in Chicago and what are the advantages and disadvantages as well.  

 

South Bend Regional Airport to South Bend International?

 

I always wonder why the South Bend Regional Airport became international. I thought it would be a good documentary report to inform resident from South Bend. In couples months we will be here more airplanes during the day and night. I would like to ask the residents that live near and by the airport like me. I always wonder if they agree with the new changes in the airport becoming international.But again I take in consideration that will be bringing profit to the city of South Bend.  Another advantage could be residents from Indiana do not have to travel to Indianapolis or Chicago to travel international. In my opinion I think there are a lot of pros and cons about the new changes. I will also learn about the opinion of residents in general living in South Bend.

Against new technology?

Last documentary has a lot of controversy now days, for example there are a lot people in this world that enjoy technology to the fullest but there also a lot people that do not agree with new technology. For instance elder people do not want to be involved with online services because they feel insecure, the reason why I came up with this topic because at my job we always encourage our customer to be updated with technology since it helps them in many different ways save time and quicker access online. I also know young adults that don’t like new technology. I would definitely be interviewing people from different ages and ask them how much they depend to the technology. Do you think technology takes away communication with your family? For example children and teenagers don’t go out and play in the park because they are too busy playing online. There are a lot of aspects to view the advantages and disadvantages of technology.
