As a result, the rent is to spend the half of the monthly salary, plus the daily expenses, only the austerity can barely live, let alone filial piety parents.  Feihe Huang sighed. "A combination of factors, the most affected by the rise in rents, is the" new generation of knowledge in big cities, "such as college graduates.  Zhou Yunqing, a professor of sociology at Wuhan University, an expert in China's Housing System Research Institute, said in an interview with the China Youth Daily that since many units no longer provide welfare accommodation for new employees, and that newly graduated college students, especially undergraduate graduates, are underpaid, the rise in rents does add a huge burden to their lives. 16.7% renters consider going to the two or three-line city life survey show that in the face of rising rents, 54.6% of tenants choose to "continue to rent the current house", 35.1% chose to "Rent from the city center farther from the house", 12.6% of the people choose to "rent a worse house, such as the basement or small cubicles."

Zhang Mei know a couple, they bought a house in the home, but in Beijing rental work. "They do not want to go home because in the advertising industry they are engaged in, in Beijing to do a year's worth of money, the top in their hometown for many years to earn." They would rather send money home for a mortgage and then pay the rent in Beijing. Zhou Yunqing pointed out that the population from rural to small and medium-sized cities to the flow of large cities, is the law of urbanization development. Can not because the rent rises, let them all go to small cities, even rural areas, after all, some types of talent, leaving the big city has lost its niche.
