What's good about living in China? Aren't the cities huge, unwalkable, polluted? Asking in good faith. I've never visited, but spent a lot of time in Bangkok and that was a dystopian nightmare to me.

I have a lot of friends who emigrated from China and they are complaining a lot about freedoms, social welfare, and work life balance back home.
