Housing problem comes hand in hand with population growth. Some big cities in China are now encumbered¹ with a rising population. Naturally,one of the most serious problems incurred² is that of housing. Despite the mushrooming high building,the provision of living space still falls far short of demands.Since the world is advancing, people are no longer reconciled to living in shabby shelters.They look forward to decent dwelling³ places which can protect huan dignity.

Various solutions have been suggested.But there seems to be a drawback to each of the solutions.The traditional free allocation of dwellings⁴ to the needy⁵ brings great economic burden to the government, while paid allocation brings equal burden to the average people. The moving of urban population to the suburbs may ease housing problem in inner city but brings about traffic problem.The best solution seems to be a combination of all suggeted solutions.We still have a long way to go.
