Difference between Living In USA vs UK.. Which Is Better?

[@Lando-kx6so]

I'm a Jamaican that was raised in the US & is now in the process of migrating from the US to the UK & I just want to say to those reading this comment the UK is better in everyway that's important. Better healthcare, better food standards, better education system, far better social programs, safer (no guns), better workers rights, easier to travel to other popular destinations etc. If you have a family (especially with kids), if you love to travel, or you're a working class or middle class person the UK is better in everyway. If you want to be a hollywood movie star or only care about making money & nothing else then the US would be more for you

[@TochiEsther]

Wow, thank you so much for this

[@ikechukwuobioha4052]

Thanks for this.. But your Personal Opinion though, and not a General thing

[@Lando-kx6so]

@@ikechukwuobioha4052 The healthcare system, food standards, & education system are better, it's generally safer out in public & on the roads, overall cost of living is lower, better social programs, better workers rights & more time off, long maternal/paternal leave, one of the best locations to have as a base for traveling to other popular places in Europe, Africa, the Middle East, better road infrastructre as well. These are all facts. The US beats the UK in more job opportunities (it's a much larger country), more diverse climates, more space & larger homes (isn't something that interests me), & slighty higher wages (depending on the job)

[@ikechukwuobioha4052]

@@Lando-kx6soYou got some valid points there though, but still your personal opinion though, health care,you can say the UK has an edge,but saying that UK is better than the US in Education,I strongly disagree on that ..... The US , has one of the best Educational, and research institutions in the World that the UK can only dream of...... And when it comes to safety the UK has an edge ,but the safety thing is not a sure thing in the UK, in the UK there are many places in London we hear of violence on a steady basis, killings, stabbings and all, but of course the BBC will not report that , But overall I will prefer the US and UK over other European Countries and Asian Countries any day anytime.. . Both countries have their Good and Bad... . You can't have it all anywhere on Earth..

Yes o

[@2LETLIVE]

Guys, let's clarify one thing. Minimum wage in the US is mostly for unskilled workers. No college graduates or a degree holders gets paid minimum age in the US. No professionals get paid minimum wage. I disagree with the lady. Marketing managers earn upwards of 75k and more. Account managers earned way more than 95 k or 130k and above. So Techs don't even come close to many fields when it come to earnings. 70k is like an entry level salary. Pharmaceutical sales make upwards of 90k 150k. If you in any te hnical sales, your staring salary is in upwards of 100k/yr and higher.

In addition to that on health care am Nigerian and staff of the NHS, when we talk of health subcharge, it's only for non residents who are not working in the NHS mostly students, and non health care workers who are moving into the UK, as a citizen, Permanent resident and there families don't pay health subcharge, same with NHS workers with Bio metric resident permit and there families don't pay, same with students working with the NHS even as low as health care assistants don't pay health subcharge... Only students not working with NHS, non permanent Residents not working with NHS pays for it, you renew it every 3years until you get your PR, which after five years you have lived here for non students, and for students you start counting from the day you finished your studies and get your BRP (Biometric Resident Permit). Even Visitors with any sort of 'emergency' for a person with a visiting visa, example a visitor had a heart attack and was rushed to the hospital, the patient is taking to the emergency room resuscitated and have a cardiac CT scan, then the found out maybe some of the arteries are blocked then the patient is rushed to the Cath lab unit for interventional PPCI procedure, and after that the visitor recovers and discharged, here in the UK the visitor will pay absolutely nothing FREE).I paid £650 for my sister coming here for master's last week, now this covers all her health care for next 3years, she will have to pay another one in the next 3years until she becomes a permanent Resident because she's entitled to live for 2years here until she gets a job post graduation, On that same health subcharge, let say my sister came to the UK to study, she's going for a masters in Data science , she came into the UK, while as a student she gets a job with the NHS or any big private health care delivery in the UK, she will file to the UK government and the health subcharge she payed prior before coming to the UK will payed back to her untaxed. I was in the hospital for more than 1week last month and I payed nothing, with loads of intervention..., I have worked in a hospital were we specialize in cardiac and lungs, we do loads of heart and lungs transplant, you pay nothing in the UK, Life is far more easier here. #please do mind my typographical errors,*

It’s neither here nor there, but a few things that I like about the uk 🇬🇧 over the USA 🇺🇸 are: 1. Free healthcare in the uk 🇬🇧 👏 2. You don’t have to necessarily have a car in many uk 🇬🇧 regions As per usa 🇺🇸 I like; 1. Housing is somewhat cheaper & better quality, you get more for the amount you pay for housing. The houses and apartments in USA 🇺🇸 are bigger and better. 2. Socially there are more things to do in USA 🇺🇸, the uk 🇬🇧 is socially boring for adults. Overall, you can live a better life in uk 🇬🇧 & USA 🇺🇸 when you earn well in these countries. It all depends on what you make of where you are.

[@TochiEsther]

Nice, thank you

[@Crybaby-cz8et]

@Michael P the problem with the US is it will not accept graduates from other countries to use their degrees in getting jobs there. For instance someone with a Marketing diploma from any African country will not use that diploma to get a job in the US. The USA does not do Visa sponsored jobs like the UK. There's this green lottery card the US offers but most people never get it from African countries. They cut certain African countries out and most people who get it are from Iran, Bangladesh you know those countries where english is not spoken at all. UK is better than the US in my opinion even though I don't live in the UK

@@TochiEsther Ok.Maternity leave is atrocious in the US. It is the only country in the western world which doesn't offer statutory maternity leave and most are only entitled to it 6 weeks unpaid. Another glaring difference as well which ties in with the health expense is that even if you have insurance cover with paying up to $300 a month, you could still be left with a $1k dollar bill and that is supposedly a not bad in American terms...In your next video a comparison between giving birth and leave quotas in US vs UK would be a good topic to discuss as that would help many who have relocation dreams back in Nigeria

Yes she had alot of health issues thats true but they in which they determined she was not fit to live was horrifying.

Just the continental United States alone (not including Alaska and Huwaii) is more than 40 times bigger than the entire Unted Kingdom. There are 11 states in the US that are bigger than UK. There are four different time zones in the US. Nigeria is almost 4 times bigger than the entire UK. Actually, Ghana and UK are about the same size. So, there you have it.

[@DionneEguono]

Yes ..UK is an Island which most people forget. Other key facts Canada is bigger than both the US and Nigeria but the UK has a larger population than Canada and only 6% of UK land is built on.

[@2LETLIVE]

@@DionneEguono What's your point though? Yes, Canada is a huge country but most (80%)of the country is inhabitable and unsuitable for humans to live in. 95% of Canadians live near the US border for a reason, lol! Canada's economy relied heavily on the US economy. You know the US can easily annex Canada if they wanted to? The population of the US exceeds that of Canada, Nigeria, and UK combined.

[@DionneEguono]

@@2LETLIVE my points were initially just an addendum to your original comment nothing more or less but it sounds like you are bragging? Anyway Size really doesn’t matter because it is about quality not quantity. The US may be bigger but the quality of life for most is extremely poor with inadequate health care packages, inadequate maternity and vacation leave, poor public transport systems, wooden houses, more derelict city and town areas, poor gun controls, high murder rates, poor banking systems (surprised people still write and cash cheques in the US), poor food options with the FDA allowing bleached chicken, bleached eggs which need to be refrigerated and things like rubber, insects, rat shit etc allowed to enter into the food chain. Again it is about quality not quantity. At least in Canada they can look after their population and no the US could not annexe the country even if they wanted too. However America is still one of the greatest countries in the world. It used to be my first choice of destination for vacationing but the gun thing has put me off. The last time I was there, a TJMaxx store I was shopping in the day before was shot up randomly the next day. Now I just enjoy America via Social media lol

One correction there, Nenye. Texas is not bigger than Nigeria. Do not come to the UK. We are minimalists. We wash plates and don't rinse it cos we need to save on water. Our houses are small because we need to save on gas, bigger houses will require more gas for heating. Our cars are small too... We need to save on the petrol. Likewise our roads, very narrow. the road sweepers have less space to sweep. Go to the USA. But be careful with the guns. You can go bankrupt for having a fractured bone.

Hi Chukwudi thanks for the correction. Like I mentioned in my comment, I wanted to say texas was 3 times size of UK but for some reason I said Nigeria. Also, this was just a comparison. In as much as there is gun violence in usa, there are so many other pros. Thank you so much for your input 😊

[@DionneEguono]

In a nutshell...Yes the houses are small but big houses are readily available but be prepared when those heating bills come. My Dad bought a big old house without central heating in London when he first arrived a few decades back and I remember not being able to enter into certain rooms during the winter because the were too cold. Also most (over 90%) of houses in the US are made mostly of wood and therefore one hurricane or fire away from total destruction. Wood is cheaper than brick and mortar and land is immense and affordable (na Island we dey for UK) hence the reason why bigger houses in the US are readily available, cheaper and larger.
