Why do people live in caves in this hellhole of Shanxi?

As a native of Shanxi, to be honest, Shanxi is really poor. Most of the underdeveloped economies are heavy industries, but there is no light industry. Compared with the advanced first-and second-tier cities, Taiyuan is a third-tier city at best, but not all Shanxi people live in caves. Most people who live in caves are in Lvliang, which is also related to the topography of the local Loess Plateau. Just like the Loess Plateau in Shaanxi, they also live in caves.
