The family lives in China. Y is 75 years old and is a retired mechanic. He lives with his 60-year-old wife, L, a son, and a granddaughter. The family lives in a 2-bedroom house which they own. They have been living there for 75 years. The best thing about their house is its location. They live here because it’s the place where they grew up, but the surroundings have grown worse due to construction rubble all over the streets.

The family lives in a two-bedroom house, which they own. They’ve been living here for the past 75 years. They like the house location but they don’t like its surroundings because of construction rubble all over the streets. The house has reliable electricity. The toilet is outside the house and is shared with 57 other households. There is a small cost associated with using the toilet. The family has to buy 100% of their food, which costs them about 90% of their income. Water is available outside the home and is not safe to drink. They use electricity and natural gas as fuel for cooking. The family saves very little money, since most of it is spent on food. The last time they had a vacation was several years ago. The furthest they’ve ever gone is Dali.
