It is actually a rich slum cos the buildinds are high rise and the surroundings are quite clean.if only they clean up the place and do some paintwork it will be much better.
Despite being a tier 1 city, this is still common in Beijing, in which I have lived for four years. My love of cycling and hiking has given me an opportunity to see/experience this firsthand, and even after four years, the disparity only a few miles can make is unfathomably large. While I don't deny that simple things, such as takeaways and Taobao deliveries are probably difficult, a lot of residence choose this "way of life" because the Government provides yearly grants to areas whose GDP (or equivalent measure) isn't high enough to satisfy the population. Excluding the current generation, many people were provided with free housing in the 60's, which is why that despite the quality, it is still preferable to maintain that home, even if it cannot be legally transferred to your heir. Even though big cities are highly dependent on service industry roles, the socialism and provenance help maintain the displayed preferences and/or attitude in the videos that this channel shows. I was actually in Chongqing for 4 days at the end of last month, and while a constant hike due to the topography, and indeed a huge, aged population, there is definitely a difference (positive) difference in the attitude between people there and those from Shanghai and Beijing.
Slums it may be, at least people got housing, shelter, unlike those makeshift tents of California, people living on the streets!!! Thanks for highlight. 👍👍
Definition of slum is a thickly populated section, especially of a city marked by crowding, dirty run-down housing, and generally poor living conditions. Different countries have different societies and different types of slum, you can't compare apples to orange, and both are fruits but not the same. BTW... China has plentiful homeless people. You just don't see it on video
If you think this is a slum, you are using the wrong terms and you have not seen nothing yet. This is heaven compared to some real slums around the world.
There are many places just like this all over the world . There the people will make money selling the only thing that they have left , which is themselves in order to support not only their self but family too . I like how you show the real living conditions of the poor people who live there and call this home . i also love the gardens where they grow food to eat and to sell at the market .
even in a place like this, i saw alot of place with air con, in my country if u can afford air con bill then u r not poor, come to indonesia and u can see what is poor really like
Definition of slum is. symbol of the gap between rich and poor, a thickly populated section especially of a city marked by crowding, dirty run-down housing, and generally poor living conditions Every country on earth has its slum and hopelessness. You just don't see it.
This is not slum. If you look at slums in India, Latin America or the Philippines, each family has a tiny room. In this case, each Chinese family owns a building. The buildings are poor organized because they are built by the villagers. This is not the city and nobody plans the buildings. But this is not slum, no.
This is NOT a slum. This is just an older area of Chongqing. A slum is an area of people who don't have access to safe drinking water and/or reliable electricity. These people meet both of these conditions. Do they have a lower median income than the average person in Chongqing? Most likely. However, this is not a slum because slums no longer exist in China - not since 2021.
Typically, a slum relates to the quality of housing and the cleanliness of the area. Not to mention rodents, etc. China does not NOT NOT have potable water. All water from taps has to be boiled. I have lived in ZhengZhou, SuZhou, WuHan. The water from the tap is not, NOT potable.😂

those are the remaining old areas in a fast growing city, people living there will be millionaire one day when developers come along to buy their land for new development.
What is striking it that though buildings are old they are surprisingly clean and tidy. Dont see any trash around

I've learned long time ago, the bigger the glittery, the bigger the shadows behind it. Everywhere, no matter where you look.
Not only in Chongqing, but in fact, every city in China is surrounded by such slums; Thank you for presenting such a real China to the world!
This is not a slum, this is rural, in every suburb of Chinese cities there is always a village
Your comment shows you have no idea what a slum is.
Love this channel 👍🏻👍🏻

Thanks for giving us an insight to unknown aspects of China...
Thank you for taking the time to film, fly the drone, edit and upload all this. 🙏🏼
Your work is much appreciated thank you.
I think Chongqing have hidden beauty called ''peace''
Good comment.👍
But the thing is, people there are happy with their lives.
I watch a lot of vlogs from the Philippines, by comparison it is hard for me to think of such a clean place as this being the slums.

Why do you always have to be comparing with the United States? Each country is different, both have their good and bad points.

又去玉清寺了不错
Is just rural area, cant define as slums..
those are the remaining old areas in a fast growing city, people living there will be millionaire one day when developers come along to buy their land for new development.
China is still working on its poverty alleviation programme
Why are there so many people just hanging about in doorways?
They are company ladies
You see them everywhere in China. Doesn't have to be a slum, like lower income areas. It's not only in Chongqing.
@@deborgonya company ladies ?
please explain.
Typical scenes in most developing asia countries 😂 I can confirm this as a Vietnamese 😂
You can not call this slum, people grow their own vegetables they not bother other.
Where are the cops and street gangs? Drugheads?
