Approaching an Interactive Resolution on New Citizens’ Job–Housing Balance and Vacant Housing Reduction in Guangzhou

EasyChair Preprint 15955

Abstract

This study examines the job-housing relationship and the housing vacancy rate in Guangzhou, aiming to propose an interactive resolution on new residents' job-housing balance and Guangzhou's vacant housing reduction for sustainable urban developments. Initially, it calculates the self-sufficiency of employment and residential populations across 11 administrative districts and 170 streets/towns in Guangzhou, along with peak commuting times for weekdays, to evaluate the job-housing relationship of new residents. Subsequently, the study assesses the housing vacancy rate in Guangzhou and analyzes the current state of vacant properties. Finally, by integrating the job-housing dynamics of new residents with the housing vacancy situation, the study proposes strategies aimed at addressing the challenges of vacant housing and job-housing imbalance through the rational allocation of unoccupied properties.
