What an interesting idea for affordable rural housing! That was sarcasm, roll eyes.  This is a Chinese farming village – all crammed into one big rise in the middle of the countryside. Efficient (especially if you have collective/state owned large farms) maybe but kind of destroys the beauty of farm living. Plus, as someone who lives in a rural village myself, I cannot imagine living with everyone in my village in one building. Living on a large but scarcely populated island where my closest neighbour is at least a kilometer away is close enough quarters considering the likes of many of them, thank you very much.
