  Housing is the essential and the basis of people's livelihood.

Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, my country has taken accelerating the construction of the housing security system as an important task to meet the basic housing needs of the masses and realize the housing and housing of all the people, and strive to provide the bottom line for the people to live in peace.

In the past ten years, the housing security system has been continuously improved, the construction of affordable housing has been steadily advanced, the renovation of shanty towns has been vigorously implemented, the number of groups benefiting from the housing provident fund has gradually expanded, and the housing security capacity has continued to increase.

  "I used to live in tile-roofed houses. Every household was messy and crowded. It was inconvenient to use water, electricity, and transportation. When it rained on the dirt road outside, water accumulated everywhere, and there were potholes." Speaking of living in a shanty town for more than 30 years, Datang, Yiyang New District, Yichun City, Jiangxi Province Community resident Yi Lihua said with emotion.

  With the launch of the shed renovation project of the extension of Xiujiang East Road in Yichun City, 8 residents' groups and 350 households in the community where Yi Lihua lives have moved into the resettlement houses one after another.

"The current house is not only comfortable to live in, but also has complete supporting facilities. The school and hospital are right next to it. The transportation is convenient and the greenery is good." Yi Lihua said.

  The reconstruction of shanty towns is a popular project to speed up economic development and realize people's peace and contentment. It is also a people's livelihood project to improve the living environment and quality of life of the people.

Yichun City insists on changing the shantytowns to the people and benefiting the people by changing the shantytowns.

In the past ten years, 237,000 shantytowns have been renovated, covering more than 26 million square meters, and more than 600,000 people have moved into modern communities with complete facilities.

  People live in peace.

Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, my country has entered the construction period with the largest scale and the most investment in the construction of affordable housing projects in history. A total of 14.8 trillion yuan has been invested in the construction of various types of affordable housing and shanty towns. Families with housing difficulties and low-income housing have basically achieved all the guarantees they need, and more than 140 million people are happy with their dream of living in peace.

  Walking into the Science and Technology Pioneering Park of Yiwu City, Zhejiang Province, a dormitory-style apartment building called "Anxin Youth Community" attracts attention.

This is the first talent apartment complex jointly managed by Yiwu Talent Development Group and Anxin Group. It is used to protect the housing issues of enterprise talents in the park and college graduates who are invited to work and start businesses in Yiwu. People take root here.

  Chen Chen is an executive of an e-commerce company in the Science and Technology Park. He has lived in Anxin Youth Community for more than a year since he worked in Yiwu last July.

"The room is fresh and clean, the beds are comfortable and warm, and household appliances such as washing machines and refrigerators are readily available." Chen Chen told reporters that the monthly rent is about 1,000 yuan, plus utilities, it is less than 15,000 yuan a year.

"For me, who just graduated, housing costs here are a huge savings."

  In recent years, the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development has guided and urged local governments to accelerate the development of affordable rental housing, determine development goals, establish basic systems, promote multi-party participation, and implement support policies. The pattern of multi-subject and multi-channel development of affordable rental housing has initially taken shape.

In 2021 and 2022, the national construction will raise 3.3 million units (rooms) of affordable rental housing, which can solve the housing difficulties of nearly 10 million new citizens and young people.

  To have a place to live, but also to "live in a livable place".

  "It turned out to be dirty and messy, but now the outer wall of the building that has fallen off has been repainted, and the elevator installation, which has been waiting for many years, also started in April this year." Speaking of the changes before and after the renovation of the community, he lives in Huishan District, Wuxi City, Jiangsu Province. Uncle Wang of Tianyi Garden Community praised the "new look".

  Six buildings in Tianyi Garden Community were built in 1998. Last year, Huishan District identified it as an old community for renovation.

Today, the messy flying line charging in the community has been upgraded to charging piles, and the old door locks and street lights have been uniformly replaced, and various facilities are more complete.

"Before the children persuaded me to move out, now it is safe and tidy, and they are more at ease." Uncle Wang said.

  According to reports, in the past ten years, Wuxi City has invested more than 4.5 billion yuan in financial funds to renovate 661 old communities of about 27.9 million square meters, benefiting more than 380,000 households.

  The transformation of the old communities is a vivid practice to solve the problem of "urgent, difficult and worrying" of the masses and make the city healthier, safer and more livable.

In 2019, my country included the transformation of old urban communities into the affordable housing project, and the government increased its support and gave financial subsidies.

With the continuous advancement of the renovation project, more and more old communities are revived with new vitality.

From 2019 to 2021, in the three years, a total of 114,000 old urban communities will be renovated nationwide, benefiting more than 20 million households.

  Live and work in peace and contentment.

Over the past ten years, from public rental housing to affordable rental housing, from shantytown renovation to old community renovation, from affordable housing to shared property housing, each housing security measure has been effective in "one brick and one tile". The beautiful vision of "living and living" for hundreds of millions of people.
