2009年,困扰一切家庭的,依然是衣吃住行这一基本问题，而在金融危机和高房价的压力下，房子、低收入成了最大的痛苦之源...
House! House! Housing is always a big issue for people. Nobody wants to be a drifter with no place to settle down. For many Chinese young people, the whole year of hard work in 2009 was for buying an apartment.
"Housing is a big issue for me. I want to buy a second apartment, but the price at present is so high that I have to postpone my plan."
"I think the housing prices nowadays are soaring. I had planned to buy an apartment earlier this year, but two or three months later the prices soared to an incredible level, so high that I couldn't believe it! So I had to quit. My biggest plan for 2009 - buying an apartment - has now gone with the wind.
"I am an immigrant to Beijing. I really want to have an apartment of my own, but I want to say, buying an apartment is what only the rich can do, while me, who is not rich at all, has nothing to do with buying an apartment."
Housing is always an issue for most people. For some who are lucky and ambitious, it may be a question of affording one more spare property. But for most people, owning a home is a remote dream.
