Cities feel busy or quiet based on what happens in them. Think of a city like a big playground, when many people are playing, running around, and talking, the city feels busy. When most people are resting or sleeping, it feels quiet. Some cities have more people working at night than during the day, which makes them feel busier even when it's dark outside.
Examples
- During the day, the city is full of people walking to work, making it feel busy. At night, when most people are asleep, it feels quiet.
- A city with a lot of restaurants that stay open late stays lively even when offices are closed.
- Some cities have big concerts on weekends, which makes them especially busy during those times.
