I love the people and all the buildings everything looks so beautiful! Not like the fake videos with the two meter long legged women. This is real and beautiful 😍

Their "life at the bottom" still looks better than my life in middle America. Not that I'm downplaying the hardship of the working class in China, I just wish my country had better urban development.

[@davidchou1675]

Great to see working-class China!! Always wondered where the migrants and other normal Chinese live -- thanks for sharing!

[@davidchou1675]

OMG This is almost as noisy as a big-city ghetto in America!! Jesus Christ WTF is with all the honking...ridiculous!!! Sigh...no wonder Chinese people are so patient; they have such "great" training...!

[@GoodCitizen-gm1tl]

normal Chinese, what do you mean? These are migrant workers who wish to save most of the money by choosing a cheap rent. They can choose to live in apartments as well but it will eat up a lot of their savings, which they don't prefer.

THIS IS BEAUTIFUL!!! I hope one day I can stay here a while. I love urban society

[@jufegom]

Excelente video y que vibrante ciudad y pais.

[@Nick_The_Santa]

Amazing video, looks mostly beautiful but also does not look safe at all in some of it.

[@jiggersotoole7823]

I like the absence of cars. Very friendly.

[@scarbo2229]

I’ve been to Guangzhou. There’s a huge difference from the older areas and buildings compared with the newer. Also, you really don’t want to risk the street food.

[@thestype]

Do you see how even in this poor (?) neighborhood everything is rather clean and ppl travel emissions free? It is rather silent and it does not look like a dangerous place.

[@bmk8018]

Still far less homeless people on the streets than in the USA

Love your posts; I sort of "feel at home" in this environment and could handle experiencing the vibes that exist here,

[@davidchou1675]

I agree -- except the loudspeakers and whizzing motorbikes would piss me off no end so no I can't agree LOL

How many live in these urban villages around the country ?

[@stavmangr]

I wonder in case of emergency how the fire brigade or the ambulance will deal with the incident in these narrow streets ?

[@davidchou1675]

Great question...now just imagine thousands of years ago when cities in China were already in the low millions!

[@davidchou1675]

How does any mail ever get delivered LOL there are no street signs hahahahahaha!!!

[@davidchou1675]

Jesus so many of those damned electric bikes (no scooters oddly enough??) with them exploding batteries...how do they do it??? Chinese are obviously very careful people!!! All over NYC people are dying from those stupid electric bikes and scooters and their batteries....

So, these people are considered poor?

[@michaelzap8528]

In China anything once labelled as village,it is always guarantee to be poor , backwards, etc if not the poorest,most backwards.

[@fellowhuman4656]

@@michaelzap8528 what does backward mean. people are uneducated? Junkies? extremists? if it is about earnings, cost of living in also low

[@Invierno-os5ui]

Al parecer tienen estándares bastante altos. Sin embargo seamos honestos la sobrepoblación, quizá lleve a muchos a vivir en espacios pequeños y no podrían comprar un auto, etc. Dudo que su problema sea de salud, o educación como en otros lados. También me he encontrado con discursos que buscan incentivar al ciudadano y al empresario a no caer en prácticas estilo Honk Kong o Corea del sur, con respecto a la calidad de la vivienda. Eso les llevará algo más de tiempo. Apparently they have pretty high standards. However, let's be honest, overpopulation may lead many to live in small spaces and they would not be able to buy a car, etc. I doubt that your problem is health or education like elsewhere. I have also come across speeches that seek to encourage citizens and businessmen not to fall into Honk Kong or South Korea style practices, with respect to the quality of housing. That will take a little more time.

[@flyingnan2520]

It depends on your reference. Urban villagers locate in megacities. Of course the urban villages are the relatively poor regions in the megacities. But the urban villages in megacities are still richer than some very rural regions.

[@davidchou1675]

They do a good job keeping everything rather clean but obviously the people themselves are key and fortunately conscientious about litter! So unlike New York's many filthy Chinatowns -- I wonder why!

[@SwedishSolesAdventures]

great movie, you inspire me, of course I subscribe to your channel and hope to join you on more advent😊🎉

What city or town is this and are they welcoming to western tourists?

[@cjgutierrez2018]

Common around China. I’m an American and I live in such an urban village and people are friendly though you will get stared at often

[@Q_QQ_Q]

​@@cjgutierrez2018you're white american living urban village in china ? Where and why ?

[@GoodCitizen-gm1tl]

depends on which city in China in which year. Urban villages or ghettoes used to be common in the cities across China, but nowadays most of the cities in China have torn down most of their urban villages (there are some still existing but in small numbers ) for urban developments, but the cities in the Pearl River Delta in Guangdong still have many such villages due to the influx of migrant workers from other provinces in the past 4 decades who prefer such an accomodation. In Guangdong, many urban villages actually occupy prime locations in the cities (some are even close to downtown) and the land prices are already very high these days and the local government find it increasingly unaffordable to dismantle them, at the same time it also creates social dissatisfaction as these urban villages offer cheap rents to many migrant workers who wish to save most of their money. So the local governments in Guangzhou are slow in tearing down these villages but they are still doing it.

[@ng0cl0ng2k5]

This looks like a carbon copy of some low-income urban areas in Hanoi, Vietnam. Literally: narrow streets, small houses, bikes, pedlars, even the litters on the street and the chaotic noise! I'm living in one, actually.

[@mizanrahman5194]

But much better than American poor neighbourhoods.

[@Q_QQ_Q]

​@@mizanrahman5194America has homeless & poor mainly due to drugs , medical bills etc.

[@ahumanbeing812]

This is "lives of [Chinese] people at the bottom" of the society??? Not bad at all. I invite you to visit the American slums, i.e., the place that is called "The Hole" in New York City. You will know what it really means to live at the bottom of the social and economic hierarchy.

[@fern8580]

they are shod in American fashion "American style" dressed "American style", I wish them, like in America, the house, the swimming pool, the car, and beautiful children who have fun in their garden

[@boejiden6587]

This'll be considered quite developed in India. LoL

If the house rent 100 dollars monthly, approximate how much the cost for food

[@chinawalk500]

Usually $150 a month

[@Divosligo]

Thats affordable as hell

[@sickofit1574]

@@Divosligo I suppose that depends on what the people are earning.

[@davidchou1675]

Roughly the equivalent of US$700 to $1K in general so still quite affordable, I'm glad to know! Unfortunately there's talk that many young folks -- even recent college grads -- can't find much work so that's troubling...hopefully next year will be so much better!!
