Everywhere you go in China these days, you hear it muttered, from back alleys to the polished hallways of the National People’s Congress. Urbanization -- It represents a “huge engine”, the way for China to sustain economic expansion, and secure its aspirations to be a middle-income nation. But, if urbanization has driven rural population to the cities with demands for housing, why are there many newly built high-rises or even entire districts still empty?
中国究竟有多少鬼城？城市化加速发展，莫名其妙的出现了一种“建了房子放在那里任其发展”的概念，于是中国有了越来越多的鬼城。市民表示“走道的人还没扫街的人多”，你在为买房着急的时候，“鬼城”里买一间送一间。
