For instance, you, you got supermarkets, schools, pharmacies, pet shops. So you don't need to go too far to buy something that you need and sometimes in emergency.

I have lived here for six months now. Last year I was living on the capital city of Buenos Aires because I was studying and it was near nearer for me to live there. But then we moved here because it's calmer. For instance, there, there is no not much traffic.

Is your home town a good place for young people?
Candidato
Absolutely, I think that is quite a safe place to live. As I already mentioned, there are many schools, clubs and activities near my house so that kids can go alone, maybe on their bicycles. That's a common habit here. It is cool because you don't have to take your kid by car and you can avoid traffic.

× Actually, it is a small city around 40 minutes from the capital city of Argentina.
✓ Actually, it is a small city about 40 minutes from the capital city of Argentina.
The preposition 'around' is less appropriate when referring to approximate time or distance in this context. 'About' is the correct preposition to express approximate duration or distance in English.
× Last year I was living on the capital city of Buenos Aires because I was studying and it was near nearer for me to live there.
✓ Last year I was living in the capital city of Buenos Aires because I was studying and it was nearer for me to live there.
The correct preposition to indicate location within a city is 'in', not 'on'. Also, 'nearer' is the comparative form and should not be preceded by 'near'. The phrase 'near nearer' is incorrect; only 'nearer' is needed.
× For instance, there, there is no not much traffic.
✓ For instance, there is not much traffic.
The phrase 'there, there is' is redundant; only one 'there' is needed. Also, 'no not much' is incorrect; the correct negative form is 'not much'.
