I'll probably be binge-watching these kind of videos soon but I find these "regular"/"average" lifestyle videos so much more interesting that the expensive ones for the rich or for with high production quality.
Oddly, most of these other comments seem negative? It's probably preference, but I like living in small spaces and being very minimal and efficient. But this is my choice and I can understand it wouldn't be pleasant if such limitations were due to being forced into it due to prices.
This was a very informative video. I know that accommodation in Shanghai is very expensive compared to other Chinese cities. It would be good to have an answer to Zahid's question below on rental or purchase costs of these apartments and utility bills. With the escalating tensions with China it is useful for people in the west to see how normal Chinese people live and that they are essentially just like us. Just perhaps a bit more restricted in terms of living space. But then again so is England compared to the USA where they have simply huge houses and apartments.
If you are able to afford an apartment in Shanghai then that is not an average Chinese person because most average Chinese can't afford living in Shanghai which is the most expensive metropolitan area in all of China. I wouldn't consider someone who lives in Midtown Manhattan representative of a average American. That would be some one who many would consider either wealthy or upper middle class.
As you can see, this is not the most representative part of Shanghai and their apartment block is far from modern or luxurious. If you were correct, then 20 mil rich people would live in Shanghai. London is also super expensive and there are lot od middle and lower income people.
Seems to me somebody would put a solar light in that window. Maybe glow tape on the stairs. Or put a touchlight somewhere in the dark stairwell. After all, aren't all the solar lights and touchlights (and most of the batteries) made in CHINA?
What is the rent of an apartment like this in china? + electricity bills?
It depends on the location. Usually it ranges from 3000 to 6000 RMB, which is 500 USD to 1000 USD.
@@yiqingwang8655 is that annual, cause as far as I know I chinese laborer will make around $8000-10000 annually
@@pegasBaO23 No. It's monthly rent bill. As I said, the location and lifestyle is the key point for the price. I think your number is correct for people who work in factory. But those people wouldn't choose the apartment shown in the video. My mother is a college professor in a Tier 2 city and her annual salary is around 200k rmb. The apartment she is living in looks like the apartment in the video.
@@yiqingwang8655a college professor making roughly 28000 usd? That's extremely low. I'm a plumber In jacksonville florida USA and I make twice that. Smh
@@chrislittle1222 US is a developed country.

Thank God I live in india. Because most of the vdoz that I watched about Chinese houses are small in size plus I feel claustrophobic when I see these homess
Weird for a communal mentality to not take care of common spaces, in Europe you normally see that kind of anti-communal mentality in former communist countries that are now very hostile to anything related to communism or group mentality. Perhaps it's indicative of that the people of China on average have a similar anti-community mentality now. Many places in Europe that where never communist don't pay anyone to take care of common spaces either, people just do it for free as a shared responsibility, while former communist countries will refuse that and think the owner of the building should pay for it. Obviously it depends a little bit on the people living there, but most people prefer all of their surroundings to be nice and well maintained and are fine with doing it themselves. Because what you see and experience every day is kind of like what you eat every day but for your mind, better environment, happier mind, that becomes more inspiration and creativity and overall energy and so on. And that's actually based on Eastern principles, so I always imagined that the average Chinese person where more aligned with this kind of communal thinking than this video seems to indicate. But perhaps the extremes they took it to for a while there has caused the pendulum to swing back in the other direction to far, a bit like what happened in many of the former Soviet countries. Hopefully it'll balance out over time.
Ermmm, this is at a minimum 1 million dollar property, rents for at least 1k USD
If you live in Shanghai, you're rich.
horrific way of living. I grew up in East Germany, horrible reminder of the council flats we lived in.
Is this reslly typical of s chinese home?
lower-middle class home.
Depends where you live in China. Actually, in the villages, they have larger homes, and land for farming.
Depends on what city, this apartment looks poor to me, since I don’t live in Shanghai, which its real estate price is freaking expensive. To live well in Giant city is pretty hard.
@My Nameis Wow. You live in an apartment with 12 people in the States? I've never met anyone with that crowded a home. Where are you in the States?
Love from india
Spooky
The toilet is Chinese. The brand and the characters are Chinese.
you are right
So the living room is what they’re calling the 2nd bedroom.
It’s better kept up, but basically the same as the apartments they’d allow a family to have in East Germany or the Soviet Union.
Single people and couples without children typically got a one room apartment and then they’d share a common kitchen and bathroom with the entire floor of tenants.
Basically a commieblock architecture
More realistic than the other guys videos
Thats a small apt for a family of 4 doesn't impress me and I bet it's expensive
Still better than Japan
Keep dreaming home boy
Never
This is a Pakistani clown in awe of its master! 🇵🇰💩🇨🇳
nah
Japan its top man, tf u talking about???
That’s their problem any country with 1 billion people on it has to live in small boxes because there’s so many of them if there weren’t so many maybe they live a little bit differently
That’s not true, it’s because this is in an urban city. There’s plenty of land in China. Even Lebanon and Nigeria has a higher population density than China. That’s like judging land in the US solely by NYC.
They have plenty of room outside these very large cities. China is the second largest nation in the world by land area.

You might be right about that. China is either number 2 or 3.
So much of northern Canada is basically uninhabitable though.
@@BB-kt5eb lol inner Mongolia, Tibet , Xinjiang contribute to more than 50 Percent of china area but contribute to just 5 percent of China's population
@@kamil_mugavara , yup Canada is second. China is actually third 👍
