摘要虽然人们普遍认为中国城中村为低收入人群提供了重要的租赁住房来源，但其居民组成、住房条件和租赁合同尚未得到充分研究。通过对北京、上海、广州等地60个城中村的调查发现，城中村的住房更多地以家庭为中心，超过一半的居民在第三产业工作，虽然他们有相对稳定的工作，但很少有合同工作。在以出租为主的住房中，住房单元很小。市政府对住房开发的严格控制导致单位面积的租金相当昂贵，住房条件也越来越差。在上海，没有正式合同的非正式租赁是普遍存在的，也是最严重的。缺乏正式合同在很大程度上与居民的地位或工作状况无关，而是取决于租金价值。
Abstract While it is widely acknowledged that Chinese urban villages provide an important source of rental housing for low-income populations, the composition of their dwellers, housing conditions and rental contracts has not been adequately studied. Drawing from surveys of sixty urban villages in Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou, this study finds that housing in urban villages is more family oriented; that over half of dwellers work in the tertiary sector; and that although they have relatively stable jobs, few have job security with contracts. In predominantly rental housing, the housing unit is small. Tight control by the city government over housing development has led to quite expensive rentals measured by unit space as well as poorer housing conditions. Tenancy informality in terms of the absence of formal contracts is widespread and most severe in Shanghai. The lack of formal contracts is largely independent of the status of dwellers or their job status but is rather dependent upon the rent value.
