| According to the regulation, which will go into effect in December, low- and middle-income earners, new employees and those who are not permanent residents but have worked in the city for a certain number of years are eligible to apply for public rental housing. |
該規定于12月開始實行。根據該規定，中低收入者、剛就業的職工、沒有戶口但在該市工作了一定年限的人員可申請公租房。 |
| For the applicants who already have homes, their current per capita floor area should not exceed 15 square meters. |
對于那些已有住房的申請人，每人的居住面積應不超過15平米。 |

人們在公租房可最多住5年。房租將比周圍房屋的租金低，但租賃戶將根據他們的收入水平和住房面積領到補助。 |
