Abstract:The attention is being increasingly paid to the housing problem of migrant workers while advancing towards balance development between urban and rural regions in China The solution of this problem relies on two levels, one is ample and proper housing supply and the other is housing consuming power of migrant workers An available way to match the two levels is to establish legal reserves of housing for overall migrant workers This paper analyzes the conflict between actual regulations of legal housing reserves and migrant worker’s participation into the reserves Some solutions to the conflict are also proposed in this paper
