Slums:
Analysis: location of the slums in Guangzhou
“Urban villages” are rapid urbanization of cities, which in their expansions, all surrounding fishing and agricultural villages. In the Guangzhou Province, Guangzhou, have a great number of these “villages in the city.” There are about 138 “urban villages.” Most of these urban villages began to grow vertically in the 1990s as some original villagers took advantage of the high migration and increased demand for housing in the city, and literally extruded the footprint of their house. Today, these villagers and house owners have turned into wealthy absentee landlords. As far as residents go, they are either migrants, dispossessed farmers or belong to other low-income groups. Xiatang, Guangzhou, is one of the main locations of Guangzhou’s slum area. There is an unknown amount of people that live in slums.
Guangzhou is known as the Slum city’ due to the number of cheap and poorly built housing that roughly account for 20% of the whole city. The slum is mainly made up of migrant workers who live in the area due to the cheap rents and authorities say it’s a hotbed of crime and violence.
