How to live a decent life in Beijing and Shanghai with the least money?

A big fire this winter ushered in a fire safety improvement with extremely high specifications. The low-paid floating population in big cities, because they can't afford to rent safe and qualified houses, was displaced in this big rectification and suddenly became a "blind stream" facing repatriation.

The online public opinion field uses the word "drive away" to express the pain in the hearts of drifting north and drifting up. Even the white-collar workers sitting in the CBD office buildings in Guo Mao and Lujiazui are beginning to worry that when the professional aura fades and the city's industry is adjusted, they will also embark on the road of low-income fellow villagers and leave the city involuntarily.

However, even without this big rectification, did Shanghai drift and Beijing drift well? Although, unlike the coffin room in Hong Kong, ⒘? The house is so bad, but the living environment of many Beijing drifters and Shanghai drifters can still be described as poor. There are not a few Beijing drifters and Shanghai drifters who live in basements, dangerous houses or houses without toilets.

Then, is there any way to live a relatively decent life with the least money in a big city like Beijing, Shanghai and Shenzhen without affecting income?

Who else has seen Hong Kong's Coffin Book? Pei junbo? Proud? People in the room will be pierced with deep holes in their hearts by rooms as small as pigeon cages. In a bustling international metropolis like Hong Kong, those low-income people can't even realize their basic human dignity, so they can only live in small houses with poor facilities.

But few people think that the low-income Beijing drift and Shanghai drift are actually extremely difficult living conditions. When he was a reporter, the professor once spent a month in a group of serviced apartment in the center of Shanghai and experienced a floating life in Shanghai. At that time, the professor's monthly income was only four or five thousand yuan, but he needed to save a lot of money to buy a house, so he had to rent a house for 500 yuan.

At that time, for 500 yuan, you could only rent a group rental house of 5 square meters. This group renting house is a three-bedroom apartment with an area of 130 square meters, and the rooms are separated by composite plates. It was a hot summer, and I just stayed in my room for a short time. My body is like a sauna, and I am sweating all over. The whole room is sealed and dry. At the peak of electricity consumption in summer, the professor witnessed the aging wires coming out of Mars.

The apartment has 10 rooms. Except for the kitchen and bathroom, all the other rooms have been cut off, and even the corridor has been occupied.

In the morning, a dozen people lined up to go to the toilet, and the scene was spectacular. Because men and women live in an apartment, the bathroom has become a scarce resource that everyone is scrambling to buy. There are two bathrooms in the whole apartment, but they are used most of the time. Because toilets are often used, there are often problems of blockage or water leakage. In this case, another bathroom is even harder to find. Boys are good at solving problems and often go downstairs to solve problems without paying attention to the public greening in the community, while girls are bitter.

Because he couldn't grab the bathroom, the professor simply set up a fitness card near the group rental house. After work, take a bath in the gym first, and then go back to the stuffy group room. Take a bath in the gym in the morning and then go to work?

Whenever recalling the memory of renting a house, professors often feel scared. If there was a fire and there were so many people living in it, would it be possible to escape? You should know the environment of group renting apartments, but it is the easiest to get angry.

So when Beijing and Shanghai conducted safety inspections one after another, the professor agreed. After all, life safety is more important than anything else. However, can we let them live a safe, secure and dignified life at a low cost?

This is not an easy task. Compared with ten years ago, Shanghai's rent and selling price are more expensive now, but the increase of income can't keep up with the increase of selling price and rent in the same period. According to statistics from Shanghai Municipal Bureau of Statistics, during the ten years from 2006 to 20 16, the per capita disposable income in Shanghai increased by less than 2.7 times, from 20,668 yuan to 54,305 yuan. But last year, the house price rose from 7000 yuan/square meter to 38300 yuan/square meter.

However, this does not mean that the low-income class in Shanghai cannot live a decent and dignified life. The professor can illustrate this point with his own personal experience. From April this year to 65438+February, the professor lived in a low-cost place near Shanghai for 8 months.

In this depression period, it not only solved the decent housing problem of the low-income class, but also had unexpected opportunities.

Dianshanhu Town is 22km away from Hongqiao Business District around Shanghai and10km away from Qingpu downtown. Although the name is Dianshan Lake, it does not belong to Shanghai, but to Kunshan, Suzhou.

On the internet, the biggest selling point of this town is the subway line 17. But in fact, the distance from Dianshan Lake Town to Caoying Road Station of Metro 17 Line is 10 km. So-called Suzhou S3 line connecting Dianshan Lake Town and 17 line has not happened so far.

Although Dianshan Lake Town is directly connected with the 17 line, it is still speculation. But for Shanghainese who live here, there are still many temptations here.

First of all, geographical proximity. Take the bus from eastern Yunnan to Qingpu, and it takes 20 minutes to reach Caoying Road Station on 17 line. You can get there in an hour by bus.

Secondly, the supporting facilities are complete. Although the town is small, it has all kinds of facilities. Food markets, hotels, banks, shopping centers, hospitals, schools, telecommunications, gas, amusement parks, green spaces, golf courses, cafes, yacht docks, long-distance passenger transport centers? All the facilities owned by the downtown community in Shanghai are basically equipped here, and it is even said that Chinese-foreign cooperative universities will be introduced in the future.

The most important thing is the price. Ping An Fang Hao real estate information. Com shows that the total price of pistachio property in the town center is less than10.5 million yuan, and you can get a very high room rate, including a house with balcony and other 85 square meters. Local new houses are all 17000 yuan/square meter-18000 yuan/square meter. Even families with a monthly income of eight or nine thousand can afford a smaller house. Just choose the rent, where the house price is also cheap, 100 square meters of finely decorated 2 rooms, the monthly rent is only 2000 yuan, and the landlord is willing to give preferential prices.

Qingpu, which borders the town, can explain how cheap the house prices in the town are. The price of high-rise apartments at Caoying Road Station and Dianshan Lake Avenue Station on 17 line, which is 0/0 km away from the town center, is 40,000 yuan/m2, which is more than double the price of Dianshan Lake. Another Zhujiajiao area in Qingpu, which borders the town, has a house price of 38,000 yuan/square meter.

Because of the low housing prices, office workers in Qingpu and Dahongqiao regard Dianshan Lake Town as the best choice to settle down. Many Qingpu people even arrange their wedding rooms in Dianshan Lake Town, because the house price is cheap.

For Shanghai Piao, who has no academic qualifications and general skills, Dianshan Lake Town has an advantage that Qingpu and even Shanghai do not have. That is, there are many employment opportunities.

Different from Shanghai's vigorous development of modern service industry, Dianshan Lake Town has been committed to focusing on developing manufacturing industry. Today, attracting manufacturing industry is still a major industrial investment direction in Dianshan Lake. Just in June 5438+065438+ 10, the cable TV station in Dianshan Lake Town also specially produced and released a promotional film for investment promotion. Among them, the heads of furniture manufacturers, Vipshop operation centers, international schools, pension centers and other enterprises also accepted an exclusive interview.

The person in charge of a company said that it is no more difficult to attract international excellent design, R&D and management talents here than in Shanghai. They found that the headquarters of well-known manufacturing enterprises in China are often in small towns with beautiful environment and first-class facilities. Such a small town has a more relaxed environment and it is easier to leave outstanding talents.

According to the information released by Jiji.com, it is easy to find a job with a monthly salary of 4,000 to 5,000 in Dianshan Lake Town. Ordinary workers, clerks, tally clerks, these stress-free jobs, the income can reach four or five thousand. In Qingpu, Shanghai, which is very close to Dianshan Lake, the monthly salary of truck drivers, tally clerks and skilled workers with slightly higher skills is 4,000-8,000 yuan/month. In other words, whether in Dianshan Lake or Qingpu, it is easy for people with average education and ability to find a job with good income, and it is relatively easy to repay the mortgage or rent a house.

There are many small towns like Dianshan Lake near Shanghai. Their common feature is that they are close to the center of Shanghai, with direct access to Shanghai by subway or bus, many employment opportunities and mature supporting facilities.

spend freely

These places give low-paid Shanghai drifters a decent opportunity to stay in Shanghai and buy a house. On the other hand, their developed real economy is also competing with Shanghai for low-income ordinary workers, which indirectly brings great pressure to middle-class families in Shanghai.

Distinguished professor Minglu of Shanghai Jiaotong University, who is famous for his book "Big Countries and Big Cities", once said that the big cities in China lack not high-skilled talents, but low-skilled talents. If there is a lack of low-skilled talents, the service price of the city will remain high.

At present, the ultra-high housing price, high housing price and high rent drive away the low-skilled labor force, which makes the life pressure in Shanghai more and more serious. A friend said that when I woke up, the first thing I did was to calculate the mortgage and ask myself if my income this month was enough to repay the loan. The second thing is to calculate the living expenses and see if your salary this month is enough to pay the nanny.

From 20 10, the general feeling in Shanghai is that the price of nanny is getting higher and higher, the price of hourly workers is getting higher and higher, the price of haircut is getting higher and higher, and the price of decoration labor is getting higher and higher. The cost of repairing the lock will cost one or two hundred yuan; The cost of home appliance repair and replacement parts may be one or two hundred, but the cost of on-site service is also one or two hundred; By the end of the year, taxis will become particularly difficult to call, because many taxi companies simply can't recruit people because of the taxi price limit; The cost of hospital care has also soared, and sometimes 100 can't find anyone to accompany him all day?

Working-class families in Shanghai find that even with an annual salary of 500,000 yuan or1000,000 yuan, life may not be happy. Because such a high annual salary often means that the boss needs you to work overtime frequently. However, after deducting social security and personal income tax, after paying the nanny, mortgage and security, it will still be very nervous.

Either, our income will grow further and earn more money than before; Otherwise, we can save money and find a cheaper nanny. There is no other way except these two roads.

For the former, it is more and more difficult. According to the Report on Recruitment Salary in Shanghai Public Employment Service Market (20 17) issued by the Employment Promotion Center of Shanghai Human Resources and Social Security Bureau, the average salary in Shanghai increased by only 8.8% in the past year, which was lower than the salary increase of 9.6% in recent years.

In addition, comparing last year's and this year's high-paying industries, we can find that with the change of talent supply and industry prosperity value, high-paying industries can not always maintain a high level of treatment. For example, in the autumn of 20 16, high-paying industries-electricity/electricity/water conservancy, energy/minerals/mining/smelting, cross-domain management, medicine/biology, etc. -all have disappeared from the list of the top ten high-paying industries. And professional services/consulting (accounting/law/human resources? The average wage has also decreased compared with last year, from 14 105 yuan/month in 20 16 years to 13034 yuan/month this year.

Under the background of unstable income and slow growth of average income in high-paying industries, the second path may be more realistic. Qingpu, Baoshan, Songjiang, Jiading, Jinshan and other neighboring areas with low housing prices and relatively low wages of ordinary workers will become the first choice for more and more families who need to outsource housework and hire people in big cities. There will be more and more population inflows in these places, and eventually the house prices in those places will gradually be equal to those in the urban areas.

Buy a nice house and go to a safe house.
