Research on the Housing Problem in the Process of Population Urbanization in China

Based on the data of population census and China Social Survey (CSS), this paper studies the situation of family owned housing and the actual living situation from the perspective of urban-rural integration, focusing on the differences and the problems in the distribution of housing between urban and rural regions. The research results as follows. The proportion of family owned housing has increased, and the proportion of two or more houses is more than 20%, but the relationship between family owned housing and urban-rural population distribution is obviously inverted. The distribution of population and housing is not synchronous, resulting in the separation of self-owned housing and actual living housing. More than 10% of the housing is vacant, the proportion of rental housing is close to 30% in some big cities, and the proportion of low rent housing and public rental housing is still low. Base on the research, the author suggests that China should pay attention to the housing problems caused by the dislocation of housing and population spatial distribution, promote the rural housing circulation policy, integrate the real estate resources, and improve the utilization rate of urban vacant housing.
