In March 2022, in China, 17.5 million residents of the southern city of Shenzhen were isolated from the outside world for at least a week to stop the growing outbreak of Covid-19.

Over the weekend of March 13-14, the number of cases of infection throughout China doubled to 3,400.

According to the government notification, the lockdown will be accompanied by three rounds of mass testing throughout the city.

The migration boom and overpopulation Shenzhen in has led to the metropolitan area having the highest property prices and low home ownership rates. This was announced in mid-December 2020 by E-House (China) Enterprise Holdings.

As of December 2020, the cost of an average two-bedroom apartment in the Chinese analogue of Silicon Valley is approximately $900 thousand, while the per capita income is only $20 thousand. With an apartment that equates to 43.5 average annual fees for a Chinese resident, Shenzhen's housing affordability rate is only a notch higher than Hong Kong's, and it is the worst among 80 metropolitan areas. Only a third of Shenzhen residents own their apartments, less than half the size of other major Chinese cities like Shanghai and even less than the notoriously unaffordable U.S. tech hubs in San Francisco and Seattle.

More than 70% of China's Silicon Valley residents live in so-called "downtown villages" or "handshake buildings" that are so close together that residents can stick their hand out the window to shake a neighbor's hand. In such buildings, a room large enough for a couple costs from $250 to $300 per month. In an apartment outside such a "village," a similar room can cost three times as much.

Shenzhen's home ownership rate is lower than in unaffordable U.S. tech hubs. The apartments that residents are allowed to buy make up only 12% of the total number of residential units, which is far from enough for a city whose population has grown about 42 times over the past 40 years.[1]
