Housing prices, social security and employment are the top three concerns of
Chinese living in big and medium-sized cities, according to an online survey on
urban life quality.
The survey, to which 773,325 people in 287 county-level cities responded,
covered income and consumption of urban residents.
The survey found housing prices were the biggest worry. Thirty-five percent
of respondents said they could not afford housed prices in the cities where they
lived, including Beijing, Shanghai, Hangzhou, Suzhou, Ningbo, Dalian, Guangzhou,
Zhengzhou, and Wenzhou.
Social security and employment were another two major concerns, according to
the survey.
The two-year on-line survey was organized by Beijing International City
Development Institute in cooperation with dozens of research institutions and
more than 100 experts.
