Abstract:

The urban housing distribution system in China has transformed from a redistribution system to a market-oriented distribution system. This shift has profoundly affected the role changes for the government, work unit, and market under housing tenure governance. This study used the fifth and sixth census data of the original eight districts of Guangzhou to determine the role changes for the government, work unit, and market in terms of housing supply, distribution, and spatial configuration. First, the change in the structure of housing tenure in Guangzhou from 2000 to 2010 reflected several characteristics. For instance, the work unit no longer assumed a role in housing supply, the affordable housing supply of the government was inadequate, and the market became the main supplier of housing. Second, the choice in housing tenure during this period reflected the gradual weakening of the institutional relationship between the household and the government or work unit. Moreover, the market linkages between the household and the market increasingly became a leading linkage. The variables manifesting market relationship, such as life cycle and household income, were expected to have a distinct impact on the choice in housing tenure of urban residents. Third, the restructuring of the spatial pattern in housing tenure indicated that from 2000 to 2010, the proportion of system internal housing substantially declined in the central city and was gradually replaced by system external housing. System internal housing provided by the government became more concentrated in the suburban or near suburban areas. These conditions demonstrated the reversal of the spatial distribution of system internal and external housing to some extent. These changes in spatial patterns were the result of the excessive marketization of housing sources among urban residents, changes in housing suppliers, differences in land rental costs, and so on. Although the government played an important role in the regulation of the housing market, the provision of affordable housing was evidently inadequate, as indicated in the housing tenure structure after the work unit no longer assumed its task in the housing supply. Hence, housing sources for urban residents showed evident trends of excessive marketization. The government should expand the construction of affordable housing and ensure that location choices for affordable housing are dispersed, and regional balanced, and avoid suburban to avoid duple-marginalization in residential space and social space for residents in affordable communities. With the development of the urban housing market, the impacts of certain factors relating to the market relationship between households and the market on urban residents' housing preference should be closely examined in the process of large-scale real estate marketization development and the formulation of policies that will allow the government to regulate housing development. These factors include changes of household structure and social economic status for urban residents under the background of rapid globalization, modernization and marketization.
