上海为人才提供住房保障 解决住房困难 - 2017年08月04日

JUSTIN Zhou, a white-collar worker in his late 20s from Jiangsu Province, finally moved into a one-bedroom apartment in the Pudong New Area, a year after applying for accommodation under a program reserving some rentals for out-of-towners.

The 40-square-meter furnished apartment, about 10 minutes’ walk from the Guanglan Road Metro station, costs Zhou and his girl friend 2,000 yuan (US$294) a month in rent, property management fees and utilities. That’s about half what they would pay without the program.

”We feel lucky,” Zhou said “We are allowed to stay here a maximum of three years.”
